You need a heat source which can be as simple as a light bulb. You may also want to incorporate a thermostat to maintain the temp. You can buy replacement bator thermostats on ebay for about 15.00... just search incubator thermostat and several will pop up. I made one out of a styrofoam cooler and put a piece of plexiglass on top so I could watch them hatch.

Wifezilla that's a great link that I hadn't run across.

The one on top is a buff/khaki mix. She looks like this now...

Uno is such a brat!

The other duck passed away shortly after this was taken...

That's her on the left. She got some kind of lung infection during some wet, nasty weather. JJ was a khaki/runner mix. The duck on the right is a rouen I bought to keep her company. He was recently sold and is now living out West with 2 mallard girlfriends.​

I'm sorry for your loss, Wifezilla. They are so beautiful! Thanks for the info!

It might be pretty hard to get permission to do this experiment. I know that you have to get it approved by a vet since you're experimenting with vertebrates, so make sure you work out bugs.
