That's really great! Good luck with your ducklings.

I've only incubated two batch of eggs one batch of guineas one of Plymouth Rocks so I'm not an expert BUT some things I found out after hatching them is for the first three days DON'T turn them, since they are so small there is really no need to and the blood vessels are really easy to repture, I had quite a few red ring which I'm guessing was because I was too " rough" with them.

That's the main thing is suggest right away, GOOD LUCK!!!
