Well, I was fooled by my first hatch, which was 4/5 eggs. Such cuties! I love them! But I have 11 call duck eggs in two 'bators right now and NOT A SINGLE ONE candled good at day 11. I'm keeping them there just ..... in case..... they suddenly go good in a day or two.... before I finally discard them. The seller is sending me some more for the cost of shipping.

What varieties, Linda? I'm so nosey.

I have two whites, and two greys, and one of the greys is a drake. The eggs I bought were listed as a "mixture, we have all colors on the farm, lots of greys, bibs, and whites."

I would practically KILL for butterscotch calls!

I hatched out the most beautiful gray pied Call you've ever seen in your life...she's just a bit...larger than your average Call.

Don't get me wrong, she is WONDERFUL and I adore her, but she's what we call an "Honorary Call".

Ughh... I'm so depressed right now!

I turned all my pekin eggs, and del eggs and and a few of my quail eggs this morning and here a few mins ago I go to turn them and hubby had turned on the space heater in our bedroom which made the room get scorching hot and both bators were sitting at 105 and up.....

For how long? Don't panic! Cool off the incubators-they should be OK.

I can't remember where I got the first 5 eggs from..... LOL... not from that seller, though. The whites are itty bitties, the greys are a bit larger and the drake is the largest of those two. His drake curl is just beginning to show.
