UH OH! some1 gave me FREE FERTILE EGGS! here i go again :D QUESTOINS!

Well, it's mainly at the end...so hatch out your chicken eggs, and once they are in the brooder, crank the humidity to between 70 and 80%.
 
some make sure this is right for the duck egg.
28 days to hatch
higher humidity if possible

more questoins
when do they need to go to the pond???
we have more like a spring fed swamp???
do they eat the same feed as chix???
 
What breed of duck is it? Many do not need a pond, but they sure do love water and a kiddie pool is always appreciated. Until our pond gets made, mine are playing in an under the bed storage tub filled with fresh water in the mornings (holds bout 10 gallons).

Ducks LOVE swamps. Lots of creepy crawly slimy things to munch on. Minnows, frogs, bugs, yummm!

You can feed them unmedicated chick starter but you will need to give them some brewer's yeast along with it. They need extra niacin.

Do you only have 1 duck egg? Ducks need buddies.

good thing they like swamps! may =be i can take my buddie down there and let him play while i do school (homeschooled) and MAYBE he can make friends with the wild ducks but if not... i will sell him to a nice home with ducks.
