Duckling has pipped in two spots.

Found it! I noticed this on days that I ran the fireplace and the room heated up to 80 degrees, then I asked DH to explain why and he found a wiki page on "dew point" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dew_point

thinking back on it i remember my 7th grade science teacher having us do experiments on it
wow, that was awhile ago

hard to forget the teacher though lol

The cooler wasn't ideal, but I needed a hatcher. Won't be hatching in it again, too hard to regulate temp and humidity. I had the duckling hatch today and it;s healthy. It was rather bizarre, as it just made various holes and didn't appear to zip. I don't think the other eggs will hatch.

If all that hatches is the one?...Finger crossed you get more.......Hang a mirror and give it something fluffy like a sock to cuddle....It won't cry so much then..

Best wishes..

Thanks. I have 3 jars of water in the cooler to get the humidity up and the duckling is trying to cuddle with the jars. I'll put something for it to cuddle with tomorrow. I have another 20 duck eggs that are suppose to hatch on Thursday so hopefully he gets some company than.

You can take him out and put in the Brooder with its mirror and sock.....Dont leave it in the high humidity..

A chick or duckling can survive for up to 3 days with no food and water on its yolk
It is ok in the Bator if you think the others may be trying to pip/hatch

Make sure it is dry n fluffy
