Sorry I took so long to answer lost my internet from a storm but I mist all of them and then when I shut everything down for lockdown I filled the trays and gave them a real good mist with the warm water and closed it down

Don't need to mist them for lockdown..

Plan of action is to get one more duck out safely then we will have reach our goal and can give ourself an award if we get more than that. Lol

If number six is still holding on, he his by a thread. He is going to be a little bit tricker then the others. He's not going to be as easy.

What day is seven and eight? I think we should give seven a safe hole and maybe even eight.

Quick update before I head to bed.  "Skippy" is moving around the bator...cute as can be! 

I do think 6 is moving, but I don't hear any peeping and the movement is very, very slight...

7 - I don't hear any peeping, but I hear the rhythmic beating - it almost sounds like a heartbeat! 

8 & 9 - I hear the "rhythmic beating" sound! 

Subhanalah - I did not set all the eggs correctly - like I should have.  I set #4-15 ONE DAY AT A TIME, as they were laid, so they are not all on the same schedule.  I have two incubators, and some are not even on lockdown yet.  Then, I collected the rest and set THEM all at once - that's egg A-I!  Thank heaven for all the kind and knowledgeable people here who have graciously shared their time with me to get everyone this far!!

I'll touch base in the morning! 

And since I do not think I have said it today, THANK YOU EVERYONE! ! !

For ducky get a warm cotton ball and hold it on his butt do not rub. Try to get the blood loose to come off, then examine it, let's make absolutely sure that string isn't there. I rather be safe, because remember we never did find that string, look in the bator as well...

Just pat duckys butt, and if he still has green poop on his tail might as well get that too..

Had to uninstall and reinstall camera software...still working on it.

6 was dead in shell. Shrinkwrapped.... And there is dried blood in the shell

Mark is making a safe hole in 7 (day 37). From the outside of the shell, we can see what looks like a spot of blood inside (like the size of a nickel).

8 is on day 36.

Ok go ahead and raise that humidity up to 65 if he is shrink wrap, wow it only took three days for them to loose all that water, hopefully we have the sticky issues under control.

Let's make a safe hole for eight and open seven, I don't like the blood spot..

I'm sorry about 6. I was pulling for the little guy. Well, I'm pretty sure we all were.

I suspect that anything past day 35 is going to be shrink-wrapped and possibly malpositioned.
