OMGOSH!!! I am so excited! My pekin duck Ethel, has been sitting so dedicated to her eggs. I have been reading and reading here & all over trying to even figure out if Eddie (her husband) got the job done and these eggs were even viable. This morning, it was much cloudier so I wanted to look one more time to be sure and.... I SAW VEINS!!!! (& of course the air pocket) My eggs look a lot like this picture below but with the right turn/angle of the light I definitely saw veins. She has 6 eggs that are like this. One I'm not too sure about but left it. And the other 4 I think I just see a yoke swishing around as I rotate the eggs on the light. I don't see veins in them. Should I leave them for a while?
I have no idea for certain the exact day she started setting. April 28 I know for certain she was brooding. But can anyone direct me in how long I might be waiting based on my egg description or what I should do to Keep a check on our babies?
