hatching calls

[polish15]

I have never hatched call ducks and was wondering what the best incubator to hatch them in is? Is it possible to hatch them in a styerfome bator?

I gave up trying to use an incubator for them and let my hens set on them when I want ducklings. I just never had much luck with incubating them.

Katy........is right, calls are hard to hatch in a incubator. I'd use Silkie hens or some other broody hen or if you have a few call hens that will set on their own eggs let them do it.

Thank you that helps. Hopefully one of my cochins or orpingtons will go broody this year.

I have very good luck letting the call hens set their own eggs...maybe you should try that instead of giving them to a hen.
