I just cant stand the wait!!!!!!! 3 weeks ago we had a visit from Mr fox, he killed anumber of my rechargable hens and my beautiful lady saxony duck    "Katie" (lady duck)  had been frisky with my male cayuga duck "slash" and so was laying fertile eggs.  I had a light sussex hen who had gone broody so i placed 4 of her eggs underneath.  They proceeded along nicely but at day 35 i had to concede defeat and admit they werent going to hatch. i opened the eggs and all 4 were beautifully formed but dead 

A few days later my silver pencilled wyandotte  banty also went broody, i had 1 sacred duck egg left so under i popped it.  today is day 29 and there is a little duckling trying to make its way out of its shell!   

Its sooo exciting i cant wait for it to be out!!!!

just to have a little reminder of Katy would be o so very special.  I know things still can go wrong, and i am trying so very hard to be patient 

I will give furthar updates as things progress.
Fingers crossed.
P.S this is also my very first hatching......... EVER!!!!!
