I have two dozen hatching duck eggs coming in the mail, and at the last second it looks like I'm not going to be able to incubate them myself. Is there any chance someone could incubate them for me? I'd be happy to pay for the service.

I'm located east of Nashville, but I'd be happy to drive anywhere within an hour or two of Nashville in any direction to deliver the eggs. Thanks in advance!

Will pm you.. maybe I can help.

If all else fails I'm in north Georgia and I have and incubator and know how to do it.

Thanks so much to all the wonderful BYCers -- especially to WVduckchick and MagpieDucks, who were instrumental in helping to connect me with people, and to Fields Mountain Farm, who was the first to make an offer through PM.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, I've been able to make arrangements with a member who lives about an hour from me, someone who has already hatched a couple of clutches of duck eggs this spring and who has several incubators running. I won't reveal her name since she hasn't posted publicly on this thread, just in case she prefers to stay out of the limelight, but I'm very grateful to her -- as well as to the other lovely folks who made offers here and through PM. Y'all are a great bunch of people!

The eggs were supposed to get here yesterday, but now USPS tells me they'll be delivered today. So now I get to obsess over whether they're going to show up. Then they'll be off to their foster momma for a few weeks!

I guess I never did mention -- these will be Ancona ducklings, my favorite breed. I'll post pics once they bust out into the world!

Such a helpful community. I love it!

And best of luck on the hatch!
