Hi.
Sorry : I am copying my thread from the Ducks forum, since I think I should actually post it here :
"Please help : I just broke half of the eggshell of an unborn duckling.
I thought he could not get out of his egg alone, since egg was half broken yesterday, and the hatching stopped since then...
When I broke the eggshell this morning, duckling did not move. I don't know if he is just sleeping or dead...
He is ready to be born (brothers and sisters got out), but I think the yolk sac is still attached?
What do I do?
I just put the duckling with half the egg still aroung underneat the broody chicken!!
(I can not incubate!!)
Help, please!!"
AND :
"God... I have at last 2 other eggs that started hatching, but then stopped...
Mama has just quitted the nest, so I put these eggs underneath another broody hen.
Do I help the duckling to get out?
Hatching started two days ago already...
Are they dead? I don't hear them, or see them move...
What do I do?!
I feel so stupid..."
