More questions/ Muscovy eggs

[NCquackshack]

Thanks for info, I peeked at an egg in the nest the other day, it was very shiny and had some shaded areas on it. Pretty sure I saw the air sac with my flashlight. Do they all start to hatch near the same time? If so, anything I should be doing since she is outside in coop? More straw of course. Thanks so much!

Yes usually they all hatch within a day or so of each other, unless theres other ducks she's been pinching eggs from. Nothing special really, just food wise, make sure its duckling friendly. You can buy special duckling starter from some places, even online, or gamebird starter is okay. Otherwise chick stater and just add some extra niacin which you can do with brewers yeast. Also make sure they can't get stuck in the waterer and drown. Baby ducks love water!

Great! I will do the small dish with some marbles in it for the water. How much brewers yeast do you add?
