Fraternal Twin Runner Peeps

Mine are being happy little wiggles (last night). I have been reading up on assisting them! We are now is day 20, 1 week to, I am excited but also very worried too!
I have just had a positive covid lateral test, so I am hoping that I am over this before the babies appear.
Hope you get better soon!!!! Exciting about the peeps being so close to hatching. <3 What have to read about assisting?
 
Hello Fellow Duck and Geese Keepers!

I have recently discovered a neat happening within one of my runner duck eggs. Fraternal twins <3. They have made to Day 11 so I thought Id share with y'all. There are clearly two yokes, the vascular system in both looks good, and the peeps are looking good for their age in shell.

I know the odds of them making it are not great, but so far they look as though they will make it to day 12.


Has anyone else experienced this?

*One thing I am doing is not putting this egg in an egg rotator. Im letting it incubate upright with little disturbance as possible. I will check again in a few days.
