Do you have an incubator?? I have Duck Eggs in mine now on lockdown..

I do not yet, I always remember when I was younger incubating Chicken eggs, and hatching them successfully with my father. We probably still have that incubator, But of course, I want a new one. I want to know top brands. I want to know everything I need, And Everything I should know. I dont want to go into this myself, and fail. That would be very disappointing to me.

On Incubators I have Two Sportsmans & an Avey Incubator. The Sportsmans are older models but I love the room I have for eggs.My Avey Incubator is all digital,I have been hatching chickens, Ducks & Geese and have pretty good luck with all my incubators.Let me know what your going to be hatching and I'll try my best to help.If I don't have the answer there are tons of people on here I'm sure someone can help you out.

Well, I am very interested in purchasing some welsh harlequin eggs, or ancona eggs to hatch. Maybe some black swedish too. Pretty much whatever I can get my hands on first, and for the cheapest. I have already spent a decent amount on the ducks I have now, but hatching is something I have been wanting to do. So im searching around trying to find where I can get eggs for the cheapest. Plus with shipping and handling it kind of adds up ; ). That is what I plan on hatching.

Check Ebay both for eggs and incubators. I LOVE my Brinsea incubator. It is very stable and I have duck eggs due to hatch this week inside it now. With Ebay, check the feedback. I have gotten some GREAT eggs but also some that weren't well packaged and got jostled too much in shipping. You can also check a local feed store. At mine, you can order fertile eggs from local farmers. Good luck!
