Hatching for January and February

[TherryChicken]

Still no duckling from the egg and so dark I can't tell if it's bad or duckling alive, no movement, but it dosn't stink either. However today is day 37 and still not even an enternal pip. I have chicks hatching as we speak and has 2more duck eggs for the 6th

Ok went into lock down this afternoon. Weight my eggs again. Looks like I lost about 12.5 % on average. Air sack still on the small side. But not much I can do about it now. Had one egg stop around day 15 or so. Still have 10 to make it out 11. One of the 10 looks like it need to do some catching up to the others, did see some movement in it. Put my duck eggs into my backup bator. They need about 2 1/2 more weeks to cook. Looks like it all or nothing at this point. Wish me luck!

OK, with the help from Brick Wall Honeney, looks like I have 9 out of 11 eggs hatched. One stop developing around 2nd week. 9 hatched and on more to go. Haven't seen any signs of piping with it yet. Will let them dry out rest of day before putting them in brooder. Going to give last egg until Saturday afternoon. Got get my WH duck eggs back in. They're not due until the 18th. Any way here's a Chicks eye view of incubator.
