Hey everyone! Im pretty sure I have read every post about incubating and hatching duck eggs on here and im super excited to join this community, everyone seems so helpful!
I have a question, I'm incubating my first set of duck eggs which were shipped. They were in the mail 8 days (usps delays lately ) and arrived with saddled air cells.
I have a Nurture Right 360 incubator which has a fan and has so far been consistent and accurate with temp at 99.5 and humidity at 55%. Im on day 22 and now that its getting closer im getting nervous on how the hatch is going to turn out. I recieved 5 eggs, one quit on day 18 and the other 4 are doing great! 3 of them have aircells which aren't too badly saddled, however one takes up half the egg going from fat end to pointy end.
I was wondering if anyone has had any success with air cells this bad. If so do you have any advice. I assume I will have to assist this one, but im afraid it may have deformities? Im getting so excited as hatch day arrives and I just want to make sure it has its best chance of survival!
