Thank you so much! Did you make your own incubator also?

This post has a picture of what I made...before I got this reptile thermostat.

Hi
My name is Erica and I'm new here.
In May my husband brought home 3 duck eggs and 3 chicken eggs from a co-worker. I didn't realize the chicken eggs were probably fertile and my hubby ate them ... I stole the duck eggs!
I grabbed a 2 gallon tank, a reptile heat lamp and hygrometer, a finger bowl of water and set the eggs. 2 were duds... 1 is a very loved 6 week old duckling.

Now I am incubating 3 chicken eggs and 2 more ducks! I'm very excited to learn and share.

Hi Erica! Welcome to BYC!
Have lots of fun with your adorable little duckling! I pray the eggs hatch well for you!

Yes but it was an emergency situation and rushed...it did not work out for me.

I'm so sorry it didn't work out for you! All I can say is I lost my Mom in April ... And begged her to guide me and help me hatch this Duckie!

I'm sorry for your loss.


I ended up getting a real incubator and I've been hatching nonstop for the last year.
