Hi everyone,
I have to say thank you to everyone for all the great information that I have gathered using this site. but still more questions.
I have moscovy duck eggs hatching in my incubator, one little guy has pipped externally but that was 24 hours ago and I have opened the pip site so that he can breath today. He seems really cramped in there. I am so tempted to try and help him but I dont want to harm him (or her). Should I just back off and keep watching? I have about 40 eggs (ducks) due to hatch in the next few days and about 10 chicken eggs. I know, I know I am crazy but just love these little guys.
I had about 24 eggs sitting under my mummy duck about 12 weeks ago and when they where hatching she was tramping all over them and killed a few, so I took 9 of the eggs that where left and luckily 7 of my eggs are now 10 week old darling duckies.
Anyway any info on how long these little guys can go in inside the shell would be appreciated.
The incubator is running at 37.5 degrees and 59 humidity.
Thank you all again
Junie
