Hi all, I wanted to pop in here and say hi - hope I'm in the right spot! These cuties are my two day old Khaki / Aylesbury cross and Aylesbury ducks - 'Patch' and 'Ming-Ming' With all thanks due to Sallys fantastic article on assisted hatching these two made it out unlike their sibling who was not so lucky

I'm not sure what went wrong and why they got into difficulty. They were all in the correct position and were actively trying to pip the shell but no success. They were also pretty moist. I really think that the shells were too hard. Even when
I cook with the duck eggs its some job to crack them open!
I'm so thrilled to add these two gorgeous babies to my collection of birds

AAAWWWWWW Sil-y- Sil- your babies are so cute!!!!!!

Sal-y-Sal- I read all that to DH, about the quails, he said, "i don't care, whatever....since they are a 1/3 the size of a chicken and half the size of a d'uccle that means you can get twice as many"
He still is not quite up on the chicken math thing, and quail math......i;m thinkin means that I could get 4 x as many as I have chickens

I said b4 he is a good egg...........now I will say he is a quail egg

Thanks for the great quail info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote: me spoil a chicken ?!?! never .. i was holding them to check on them actually the two lighter ones were having a little trouble walking and the darker was born with yolk still attached and had to absorb it .. i have another one like him that i am doing everything that was suggested for and hoping it makes it .
edited to add actually what the second one has is red in color and not yolk like the first one but read all the articles and took advice and doing what i can ..

So excited as I had a phone call this weekend that my Turkey eggs are ready for me to pick up. I paniced about my dreaded incubator but today I had an early christmas present off my mum and step dad who are visiting from the uk...A new incubator WHOOO HOOO so will be picking eggs up on thursday :0) Need to find some more interesting eggs to hatch now too!!
