It's official. I sold a pair of ancona ducklings. The lady wants to come get them either tonight or in the morning. I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

I also listed my new african gosling with one of my toulouse babies. It was hard to list them and bums me out just thinking about selling them.... but it is for the best.

you will feel sad then buy more eggs

thats what I do

Movement and chipping is good. You may want to just keep a close eye. However, if you think any of them are starting to lose steam.... be on the ready to deal with shrink wrap!!!

Incubator is holding humidity right around 70%.

I just candled, all 4 have movement and I heard pecking in one.

Ok that's good. I would check on them in 2 hours and see if it's the same or less movement. Do you know what your humidity is in the incubator?

That's funny, QJ!

So, the poster on the goose thread is dealing with shrink wrap.... hoping she finds one baby still hanging on.

Fingers crossed. That sucks!

you will feel sad then buy more eggs

thats what I do

Ugh... all of her babies in bator were shrink wrapped. She was too late. She also has eggs under her goose... and is running to check them now. I so hope she finds one alive!!

White mountain.... sounds good. I would check every hour, not two... for ANY signs of slowing. Have your qtips, cuticle scissors, and tweezers ready.
