The worst thing EVER: An IDIOT with an incubator!

You didn't mess up! Not too bad at least. When I started my first hatch a month ago I just took all 3 eggs from the cooler and put them right in the bator. Today I have 3 healthy 2 day old ducklings in the brooder.

That is such exciting news!! Congratulations on your healthy babies! I'm hoping for a hatch! I'll let you know if there's any development when it's candling day!

Thank you for your support!

I think they'll be fine. I've done it before and had a pretty good hatch.

I thought you were talking to me! I got one out of 13 on my first hatch and that one died after 3 days, but I'm learning. I'm getting ready to set eggs today and I am hopeful that my second hatch will go a lot better. Truth is you will make mistakes and even the best don't get 100% hatch rates every time. Good luck!

Hehe! Even if I thought you were an idiot, I most certainly wouldn't tell you! But it's good to know you feel my pain - we can just feel like idiots together! Even when you think you know about everything, you learn that there's always more to learn!! Good luck with this hatch! Let me know what happens! Thank you for your posts!

With shipped eggs? I guess I'm just so used to having stored them in a towel lined drawer so they were already used to the temperature of my room - I hope others learn from my mistake!

Like I said before, I've never recieved hatching eggs from others - I've always hatched from my own flock! Then again I haven't hatched for a decade so my mind has gone rusty.
