WHO'S PIPPING!! WHEN'S THE DUE DATE?????

These are in the nest that this egg came from. This picture was taken on 12-19-13, so once these hatch we'll have a better idea on how far along this egg was. FWIW, these eggs are under a Muscovy hen, not in my incubator, lol.

Pip to zip is usually less than 24 hours in mine, so maybe some tonight.

Got the prelim necropsy report back and both ducklings died from infection, so I suspect that the wry neck thing was a result of a massive systemic infection. Will post the final report when I get it.

Good to have a diagnoses, do you think it came from the incubator?

Any new arrivals yet?
