Dg, look at metzer farms candling chart for day 20. You should see some veins left at top by air cell on day 20.

Duck (ancona)
exactly 20 days ago.
Temp is usually 99-100. Humidity is usually 40%-50%

Stop freakin' girl. You're actin' like you never hatched a duck before! Your chicks will start pipping tmw.
Keep you humidity on the 50's side of things. Bobby shouldn't fill the entire egg. Mine are at 22 days and they aren't filling near the entire egg either. Don't sweat it gurly.

Feel better now DG? Nobody else is worried. Besided, save up that energy for when the hatch really starts, and your checking every 10 min.

Hi Marty!!!!

How are you?

I'm ok. Ready for your party? I hope it goes really well for you.

Have you gotten any more eggs? Someone was selling blues on ebay, and I thought of you.

What have I missed??

Baby chicks look dead to me when they're sleeping. I always have to reach in and wake them to make sure they're okay.


One is using the other for a pillow.

It's dark, so I should be headed out to sneak them underneath "mommy." The second one to hatch is so runty, I think I'm going to have to keep it so it's not a death sentence. That means I have to keep a friend for it. And I really didn't want chickens!
