Hi everyone, thanks for the add!! I’ll try to be as clear as possible. We have attempted to hatch out our Peeking duck eggs. Out of 7 eggs only 3 were fertile and 1 successfully hatched. So we are going to attempt again this time with 14 eggs. I’ve been collecting and storing the eggs at room temperature for this past week. Questions;
1) Do you wash your eggs prior to?
2) Is the Temp (99.5) & Humidity (55%) the same for Duck eggs?
3) We had an automatic egg turner, is that ok?
4) As per a video on duck hatching, we spritzed the eggs daily & let them cool down for 10 minutes. We stopped this at day 25 when we took the eggs out of the automatic turner.
5) Once the eggs made day 28 / hatch temp. 97* and humidity 70.
Any advice would be wonderful to help us make the next batch more successful.
Many thanks, Sara
