Well,anyone who's looked at my sig knows I have duck eggs setting.These guys will hatch Dec.1.
Today,while I was doing my homework,my desk chair started movng backwards and,before I could do anything about it,the chair had crashed into my incubator.For a few seconds,I just stared at the incubator.Then,after I recovered from my shock,I opened it to check my eggs.There were still six of them.A couple were wet,though.None were cracked except one that was craked when I set it.These eggs are store bought,from Whole Foods.A few were turned on the wrong side.After I inspected the damage,I began to intervene.I turned them all on the right side if they were turned by the crash,tried to wipe off the wet ones (they were wet from humidity water that escaped through the holes in the platform),and closed it.When I looked at the thermometer,it said 90 degrees.I don't know whether that was from my opening it or from the crash itself.
Will the ducklings survive?Is there anything else I should do because of the crash?What if the crash killed all the ducklings?Oh,I can't bear to think about it!
Anyone else want to share my nerves?
