Good luck.
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

will do one of the ducklings left is 1/4 out, but seems really week. the other duckling is still moving about but not pipping yet so i am keeping everything crossed. i have about another 20 duck eggs due under hen the end of the month. just hope mother nature lets these live??

Oh they are lovely and I'm so pleased you've had a positive outcome.  I keep looking at photos of little duckies and thinking wouldn't it be great to have some but I know I really can't.   :wub:
