Mahonri's 3rd Annual, BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[Marty1876]

Theres lots of great duck people. Try hatch day is today, we kind of specialize in ducks over there.

I have some awesome news!!!!! My Duck eggs from Zookeeper15133 are all viable and growing!!!!! I did not expect that from eggs shipped from western Pa to Western Mt. That's over 2,000 miles and through the postal system. But when I candled them tonight thats what I got 100% growing and developing. With all the horror stories I've been reading here I expected about 50% viability after that distance. Way to go Zookeeper15133, I think allot of it had to do with the care in packaging.

Now I guess the rest is up to me I hope I do not screw it up! I have never incubated duck eggs before!

I'm always late to the parties but I'm in. Already have 23 3 week olds and 18 week olds tomorrow so what would it hurt to have another incubator full?

Right! I've been to Mesa Arizona. My uncle lived at first Mesa.
