Homesteadin you are amazing and ingenious. I love that incubator you came up with, your like MacGyver lol but with kids toys lol.

And I agree, Lacrystol knows her stuff - so glad I got connected with her to help me through!!
You really did all the work. LOL I just get to sit back and watch. LOL
 
Ok I'm finally going to bed, but one more thing for someone if they know the answer and what to do.

The 4th and final one out seems to be having trouble with its neck - it always wants to go to the left side even when he tries to hold it up, and has trouble holding it up in general. When in the shell I found his neck was coiled around that way. Will this go away or is it wry neck? Do I need to do anything at this point?

He may need some Vitamin e, Give him some time, like 24 hours if its still to the side give him a capsule of Vitamin E with some Vitamin b, I will warn you they don't like the stuff.

So glad all Four babies made it. That's great to hear. WOOO, lets do this again really soon OK. LOL

Hehehe funny you say that; 10 more eggs for incubating headed our way already ;)
 
do you still have the shell that the last one was in, I would like to see inside. there was a huge empty yellow space and I'm curious to see if that was a huge chunk of gooy stuff.
 
Woke up to check on them. Everyone's alright but "Twister" and the guy with the neck are generally weaker so I have kept them separated from the other two who are just already out to conquer the world. Thought that might be a good idea until the weaker two can really find their feet, what do you think? Twister is so tiny! No wonder he took stinking forever in that shell - probably weaker from the get go.

I started out with 9 on this hatch by the way, if anyone's curious to know. 2 infertile, 1 early quitter, 1 late quitter with a seriously messed up air cell (huge and tons of fluid inside), 1 late quitter (shrink wrapped before internal pip), 4 duckies :)
