I had a mallard duck build a nest in my backyard with 7 eggs but it abandoned the nest today. It's supposed to storm really bad tonight and the next few days. Do you think it left bcuz the eggs are dead or because it knew there was no chance cuz of the bad weather?

@n33oh I really have no idea. Depending on where you live, it may be against the law to disturb wild duck eggs though.

how humid must it be in the incubator to hatch duck eggs? online they say 84% but i think thats way too high. i dont use wet bulb i use regular.

[rwhtv]

@URAbunnylover2 We weigh them every day or two and adjust the humidity based on how much weight they are losing. The eggs should lose about 14% of their set weight before hatching. We will be posting a video in the next few days to show how we do it.

rwhtv um i have 2 girl chickens no roaster any ideas how to hatch it ????????????

[rwhtv]

Sorry, you need a rooster or you can't hatch eggs.

You know what i've noticed? NUMBER 10 EGGS NEVER HATCH. THEY JUST DON'T!!! In all the batches i'e had, egg #10 dies during incubation. EVERY BATCH. IT'S SO WEIRD. Next time i'll just skip #10 and just number it 11.
