Have I Stuffed Up?

Did you get to watch it zip?

My first 2 self-blue OEGBs are out, and first 2 chocolate orpingtons are also, one in my incubator, one under my broody hen.

I did watch it zip! What an amazing process!

I now have TWO little ducklings; a third egg has pipped. They are in the incubator still, hoping the third one might pop out overnight then I can transfer them all to the brooder at once. The most mystifying question is - how on earth did all that duckling fit into such a little egg?

How wonderful that yours have started hatching too, and how gorgeous they are!

Great to hear things are going smoothly! There sure is alot folded up inside that little egg! And it will really mystify you when you see how big they are next week!!

Hello! Just the two hatched so far, but I'm stressing about the third which I just posted about in the hatching forum! It's been 42h since the first external pip, this morning there was a second pip close to the first, and the duckling is peeping.... not sure what to do, if anything!


Here's the first of many pics LOL. How are yours going? @WVduckchick

 

[Sunnyducks]

Thank you, @RubyNala97 I'm totally smitten!
