Incubation progress of Muscovy eggs

[Lacrystol]

Path is clear - membrane is off in the path area.

How's he doing...

 

[AnimalQuackers]

Membrane is off the path area, but duckling is still in the egg. His FOOT was over his head, toward the air sac!

 

[Lacrystol]

Now going downwards peal off more shell go towards under his beak. On a side wards peal.

 

[AnimalQuackers]

How's he doing...

He is doing OK, but he is NOT out of the shell. Should I pull more off? Or see if he can do it on his own, or?

 

[Lacrystol]

Make your path shell path larger but go towards the opposite way of his head.

 

[Lacrystol]

He is doing OK, but he is NOT out of the shell.  Should I pull more off?  Or see if he can do it on his own, or?

No no he's coming out

 

[AnimalQuackers]

Now going downwards peal off more shell go towards under his beak. On a side wards peal.

I want to make sure I understand you - we just went from the pointy end of the egg - where his beak is - to the round end of the egg - where his air sac was. Do you want me continue around the shell from where theair sac was to around the shell UNDER his beak, or go from side to side of the egg - wing to wing?

 

[Miss Lydia]

This is worse than sitting in a waiting room. we need an icon biting nails.

 

[Lacrystol]

Just take more shell off but go away from the head. Do if your holding him side wards and his head is to the right peal more shell off going down.

 

[Lacrystol]

If you hold him side wards with the top of his head up to the ceiling, and the air cell is to the left of you and the pointed end is to the right of you peal more shell off going down so you would be going underneath his belly..
