What type of chicken is on your coop?

I don't really know what he is, but he makes some very strange noises
i know he's a bantam but that's all i know

Hello All,

Today is Day 20 of incubation for our duck eggs (mallard). Everything seems to be going well...thanks to all the help on this site! Today when I went to turn the eggs I noticed 1 of them was rocking. I candled it and I can see movement in the air pocket. This egg from day one looked a little different in color and size and now I'm not so sure it's a duck. Not sure what to do and certainly don't want to put the other eggs in jeopardy. I only have the one incubator. Has this ever happened to anyone? I'd appreciate any help someone can give me!!!

If its rocking on day 20 probably a chicken egg, don't turn it anymore
whats you humidity at?

Probably a chicken then. Stop turning it, what is your humidity set at?

Humidity level at 60%. How will this affect the rest of the eggs?

Yes, when I lived with my mom in town, maybe 3 miles away, we actually had a ear come into our house

We always have ears come into our house as well.

are you sure the rest are ducks? i wouldn't think it would affect too much, what kind of ducks? 28 dayers?

How do your air cells look on the others?
