First hatch!

[Miss Lydia]

Doesn't look like you over helped at all. Hopefully just enough to get them zipping.

rgr will keep updating!

One has advanced. This is ~15 mins old and it started zipping. The zip line is closer to the base right now. The other 2 i can barely see some movement like breathing but not much progress compared to this morning.

Slow pokies. They like to make us worry.

Hopefully all is well with those 2 also

I'm watching too. I've never hatched ducks before.

@shawluvsbirds is this normal for ducklings in a bator? I only hatch by ducks so I am not too sure on how slow or fast how often the rest etc. I do know they take their sweet time.

first one is out! seems to be doing well. As soon as it popped out and started making noise the 2nd started to get to work on unzipping. 3rd is still being a lazy bum but moving inside.

First one is solid. The last 2 are a little weak. I did quite a bit to help them out but no blood. They are a lil wobbly but giving them time to work in the muscles etc.

had to move the first one out because it kept following and trying to climb my hands as i was trying to help the others. Nibbling on me and the shells. It's a lively one lol.
