Alright so i really reallyyy want to try and hatch some Call ducks out. but i hear theyre like the hardest ducks to hatch. is that truee? whats the easiest ducks to hatch out and raise? what about pekin ducks? help me outtt
I love waterfowl, so I say they are worth trying to hatch. I did buy my first ducklings, though. I believe the first waterfowl I actually hatched were Pekins eggs I had shipped and hatched for my neighbor. I believe I got 6 and had 3 hatch. I bought a flock of adult call ducks and have had very good success hatching my own eggs from them. Last year my success was even better than the broody call hens. I have not tried hatching call eggs that were shipped, though. I do think if I were you and just getting started with waterfowl eggs that I'd find eggs that didn't cost too much to do a test run on. I believe in hand turning waterfowl eggs and keeping the humidity higher than I would for chicken.
