Hi Folks,
Firstly I'd like to point out I'm a complete novice to the world of poultry keeping, although I feel I've already gained some knowledge from reading some of the previous threads, I'm mainly interested in keeping ducks at the moment, so I purchased some Mandarin eggs last month, which I put to set on the 9th April around 7pm, but Im not sure now whether that means today is the 26 or 27th day, from what I understand from reading some threads, they should take 28 to 30 days? but some suggest longer, so I'm a bit confused really, I stopped turning them yesterday so hoping all goes well, should now soon I guess. I'm so pleased I found this forum, and look forward taking part.
Kind regards
Paul.
