INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Ur-ur-ur-urrr]

Don't know whether this would work or not, but perhaps it will get someone's creative juices going:

As I mentioned to Sally a couple days ago, when I was breeding bird dogs we always tried for winter litters. One of the dog supply houses started marketing eletric "nest warmers" (for lack of the proper name...been a lot of years since those days). Anyhow, it was a shallow pan, similar to a wok, that was set into a hole in the floor of the dog box. The idea, obviously, was for the dog to whelp her pups in the heated pan. The power cord was routed outside the box and (in my case, anyway) plugged into a heavy duty exterior extension cord.

I don't know if these, or something similar, are still made, or if they are/were available in smaller sizes, but they may be worth checking out for those in colder climates.

Something like this heated pet mat (101F - 105F)?

No, not exactly. Mine was circular, & made of metal (maybe plastic), but same general concept. My only concern would be the chance of a chick getting under the edge of a mat laying on the surface, and any bedding getting stuck on the fabric covering, making it a PITA to clean.

Sugar glider??
Lookin good!

I checked mine this morning after just 12 hours and its reading 28% dry. I hate to add water, but probably gonna have to, since these are ducks. I dont like them that low.

I would really like some Call ducks next year but not sure I can convince my husband lol. I may have to resort to bribery. ;-)

You've locked down, right?
If so, leave them alone & let them do what they do. Like I saw Sally tell you earlier, now it's their time. Not a lot you could do now, anyway.
