EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[duluthralphie]

Good morning all!

I woke up this morning and found an egg carton on the table with 4 big white, messy eggs in it. I know that someone DH works with has a pair of Pekin ducks since he's been asking advice and talking to DH about it for months so I'm assuming they are Pekin eggs. I'm also guessing that they're here for me to hatch lol. I've never incubated a duck egg. Is there anything I need to do that's different or can I just throw them in with everything else?

Duck eggs should be thrown against the wall before you try to hatch them. If they break they were not worth hatching. Please throw them hard a soft throw does no one any good.

Just like one should throw your head against the wall before listening to you?

Just throw them in.

I have a MRI today wonder if they will let me bring the eggs that didn't hatch.

They're so paranoid about metal objects that prob'ly not

Good luck with your MRI, I hope results turn out well.

Sneak the eggs under your hospital gown, they will never notice.....
