I’ve seen some info say from day 10 to day 25 you should open the incubator, spray the eggs with water mist, and let them cool to about 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Have you ever heard this?
Thank you, really helpful information in this video, I do have a question though, you say duck eggs arnt a normally high hatch rate, If I wanted to end with a maximum of 5 and no less than 3 ducklings, how many would you set in the incubator? I know you can't say for sure but this is what im struggling with. Ideally I only want 4, but am unable to purchase ducklings therefore im forced to hatch. What would you do?
Honestly, get a set of 12, we just did that and ended up with 3, but you kinda have to test your luck with it. If you're looking for duclings/full grown maybe try checking craigslist, fb market, and auctions. Good luck!
I've been looking Through your channel. I don't see nothing about chicken Incubators Can you make an in-depth video about chicken Incubators and incubating chickens temperatures and stuff like that?
My male duck tries to sit on egg and the female has a fit. Also I found an egg, the size of a bird's egg, in coop but she's been having good eggs before and after ..weird...why??
Great info! Thanks. Here in the south we call them Muscovy (musk-oh-vee) ducks.

Thank you

I'm guessing there's no more free e book? I also can't find any link to your website in either the description or elsewhere in your UA-cam content
Hello...when incubating at what day of the incubation period you start turning the eggs?
we start turning immediately, we mist at day 10-25 and we dont open the incubator after day 25 (which includes taking them off the incubator)
This was so helpful as we beed more girls and my duck girl is laying

Super

Thats what we do! It works great but we normally let the eggs cool to room temp (25-30 mins) and spray with warm/hot water
Came here wondering the same
Thank you for all the time and energy you put into this video.

I put 5 in and none hatched.

Amazing video thank you
I like how you went in depth
👍
What could be causing my duck egg to turn green 2 weeks after putting them in the incubator?

Excellent advice please add centigrade temps for us in countries that do not use Fahrenheit
Is incubating duck eggs then releasing into the wild at a large pond in the spring a viable practice?
To feed local wildlife maybe. Raise them till 1-2 months at least
Seems 98°F is too low, is this right? I have been using 99.5°F Thanks!
99.5 degrees is for chicken eggs. Chickens and ducks are different species requiring different incubation methods.
Duck eggs can be viable for longer than 3 days as long as the weather is not cold look up how Mallards keep nests and have eggs
