Duck eggs!!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Good luck with the ducks mate, they make great tucker 8D
 
NOOOOOOO! I lost 3 more egg because of my stupid dad, he droped the incubator while moving them....I'm so sad. The third egg may live cause it's just a dent. But idk, if I lose this one, and another one which isn't moving, 4 more chances? 8, no worries, but back down to 4??! I don't know...:( I did candle them all, little ducklings moving inside but I'd guess 16 days into their incubation, 2 more weeks of nervousness! I hope AT LEAST one hatches and lives....:nilly:
 
cool project, hope they all pull through. Now, out of curiosity, do you plan on being the "mother" duck?
 
Eh...I guess so lol, who else would care for them?
What I plan to do is keep them in a rubbermaid tub for the first few weeks, with a 200 watt bulb hanging overhead for warmth. Now when they come out of there, not sure....uhhh... some sorta baby pen? lol, I really don't know... I've wanted ducks before but this kinda hit me by surprise. I candled the duck eggs and could see the little duckling moving around inside, I'd say 2 an a half more weeks til the big hatch!
