Right on, QJ. The thread seems to be taking off like wildfire. I can't even imagine how many posts there will be by the end of the month when our goosies start hatching. I really hope we all have happy hatches!

It was dead on the back of the hatcher, My bator has a wooden paddle that actually rotates around the trays.... So it was wacked by the paddle on the way down when it fell. The paddle is what moves the air in my bator.

WELL I am

and

I set Muscovy Eggs the same day I set my Anconas.....

I woke up this morning to a dead Ancona (I think it is) on top of my hatcher!!!!

So The friggin person who sent me the muscovies sent me a mystery extra egg!!! BUT did not label it or even tell me there was another breed

So this tool does has to know that muscovies hatch out way later than regular ducks right!!!!

I know it came with my muscovies because they are color coded & were on different egg trays
AND I got 24 eggs from Worth it & all 24 are in LD already

I'm confused. Why is it dead on top of the hatcher? I'm not picturing this right.

You'll be alright. You remind me SO much of me when I was your age.

We had a tornado coming our way once, so my mom tells us to go in the basement, and yells for my dad who naturally went to check on the cows. Mom came back inside and I had gotten my goldfish out of the tank and put them in a bowl. LMBO!! She was like, "Really?" ( I was like 12 or 13)

My anconas are doing great

I have 3 that haven't pipped yet but are going strong

AND

9 that have pipped and are zipping right now

&

Yesterday & this morning I hatched 12 Happy Duckies !
I will get pics of the colored ones this morning!

Ok I'm gonna need a pic of that eventually, cuz that sounds cool.

Next, I'm sure it wasn't intentional. And if the "tool" had known they would have told you. That sucks though. It does.

But don't send off a nasty email to them until you calm down.
(do I know you or what???)
And I loved that you used the word tool.

You're sure the baby didn't make it?

Oh I am not going to contact them about it, it happens I know ~ It just broke my heart. It had a little cut upside its cute widdle head where it got hit. So I know it was quick


I will post a pic of the paddle (it runs on a belt system)
