Preparing to set call and pekin duck eggs! Hatch day should be March 4, 2021 if all goes well!

We’ve got shadowing in 3 eggs!!!

It should be just fine.
Think about how long Mama ducks get off the nest sometimes.

Thanks we are at 99.5 for temp and 63% humidity!

Day 23! 3 days to go or sooner possibly! Everyone is showing signs they are getting ready for hatch except egg 3. I’m thinking it’s just behind. Lots of wiggles and shadowing this morning! I’m betting we’ll get an internal pip today!

@WVduckchick any others out yet?

Ended up with 5. Last one was a quitter too. But these babies are adorable.

So exciting!!! I hardly ever see wiggling, especially once I remove the turner and put the liner in. I always figured the padding kept them more still. So I’m jealous that you see them rock

I was so excited to see that! Every time I talked to them they wiggle like crazy even after I put the mat in! They are very active. I was really surprised to see the one that’s a day late rocking before the other 2 that are ahead!

Yes it’s a blue fawn. All my pics of that one are blurry. Probably a boy.

Lol he must be an active little fella! Funny that you say that, all my blue fawns even my blue fawn pied have been boys! I’ve been hoping for a girl!

Look at all the movement on 9s! This is the one that’s 1 day behind.
