Silky Duck Eggs

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Well you need a humidity gauge of some sort. I actually ordered mine from Holderread's and got them as an adult pair--cost me over $100.00 I've only managed to hatch out ONE of their eggs and that was with a broody muscovy.

i let mine in the incubator for the first 4 days then on the fifth and everyday after cooled them for 10 mins and sprayed them with warm water.

I am currently trying to hatch silkie chickens and have to wait for my next round of broodies to order more eggs.

Sorry I'm not helpful, I don't use an incubator.

Here are some great links one of the folks put up to help with small duck hatchings. He has Aussie Spotted. I bought a combined thermometer and hygrometer at Home Depot for $7. It is small and digital. My chicken hatch rate with it from mail-order eggs was over 75%. Would have been higher but I screwed up and unplugged the bator instead of the egg turner...stupid me.
