OK, what have I missed??? Can someone fill me in?

 

[Lacrystol]

I believe Calls hatch earlier than 28 days maybe @Lacrystol is on tonight she is Call duck experienced hatcher.

Yes Calls are usually earlier because they are smaller. Let me continuing reading up on this forum

 

[Lacrystol]

I know call ducks usually have a 26 day incubation period, but I feel like it is far too early, even for them. I'm most worried about the air cell seemingly disappearing

Ive had calls hatch Three days before 26th day, so we are looking at day 23,

I'll go look for @Lacrystol.

I haven't heard of anything like it either and I've been scouring the internet and books today trying to figure it out and I've found nothing. The air cell was a clearly defined bubble at the large end of the egg and the duckling was a dark mass at the smaller end. Now, I can clearly see the duckling laying at the bottom of the egg, but it's laying lengthwise down the hole egg and the top half of the egg is completely covered in very defined veins. The duckling is still very active and I don't hear tapping anymore, but I can see its beak opening and closing.

I have had them fill up half of the egg only..

NEED SOMEONE WHO CAN HELP WITH MAKING A SAFE HOLE HERE, PLEASE - HATCHING PROBLEM

Hoo, boy.

is @Lacrystol anywhere nearby?

@tara1324 have you posted on the hatching forum yet? I am not a hatcher, I have read a number of stories, but I can only pass along what I have read.

Here - all kinds of hatchers participate here, and I would think a safe hole is a safe hole, chicken or duck or emu.
