Lost our duck / Incubating her eggs

Can't wait to see the babies

I can hear noise from one of the eggs! I was adjusting the camera and heard it! I'm so very excited

One of the eggs may end up hatching early. That duckling really wants to escape.
I'll be keeping an eye on it in case it does

Update.
We lost one.
I only found out because I was forced to open up the incubator after the humidity spiked again and went up to 85%. It's currently staying at 66%.
I decided to candle them once more and saw no movement for a few minutes. All the others were still moving around.

I did pop it open to find that it was mostly yolk with a tiny dead duckling. Any ideas?

I'm sorry... Sometimes it just... happens.

I'm not upset.
From the start, I wasn't hopeful any would actually make it this far or develop at all.
I'm just glad that we're getting 8 ducklings at least

I just checked the eggs through the window and saw the shell pushed up a bit on one!
I know it'll take a while for it to come out but I'm heading to Wilco to see what chicks/ducklings they still have so that it'll have a buddy until their siblings hatch

 

[KikiDeAnime]

Just so everyone knows, I'm not getting a single bird. Poor thing will be by itself until the duckling hatches
At most I'll be getting 3

Update
The first duckling should be out by tonight!
