I will thank you for the help. I have never hatched ducks before and am not sure what to do with them after. I just wanted to make sure they had a chance.

If you don't want to keep them you could sell them I'm sure. Once they start hatching up the humidity to 70-75%. If you don't already have one, buy a hydrometer and thermometer. You can get hydrometers at Wal-Mart, and most anywhere. Thank you for everything you've done to give those sweet babies a chance at life. Good job.

It looks like it still might be alive. I'd guess that egg about 14-15 days. The red color in it is a good sign.

Do I spray them with water and leave off the incubator for 10.mins until 3 days left?

Its not necessary. Cooling and misting is to try and mimic the mom, but I've had better hatch rates without. Just let them incubate.

Is the turner on or are you hand turning them?
