Hello
I have started hatching duck eggs. Probably 50% of my eggs have hatched with help and the other 30% are dying while in the shell within days of due date. I have been watching temps and humidity regularly and believe they are all up to spec. One consideration that escaped me is the feed!!! I have been feeding the ducks the Dumor brand layer pellets. Is there a possibility the layer provides too much mineral and the shells are too hard to escape?? I have checked the shells and they are extremely strong.
Anyone had any experience with this problem and switch feed to grower / finisher with better results? Please let me know. Thanks!!! I have 60 more eggs in 3 incubators and am not looking forward to hand peeling them to try and save their lives.

Hi Cyndie, thanks for joining us! You could share your flock photos on this forum:
Pictures & Stories of My Chickens
Of course, if you have questions or issues, one of the other forums may be a better choice.

I take it the painting in your intro is your house/art gallery? Nice job!
