What do we do for the ducklings in the Incubator?

We put water in the incubator and we set it at a temperature we need to put water so the Humanity can rise. Also we need water for them at a certain temperature so it's good enough that when they hatch we're teaching them to swim that it's just the right temperature. We also need to stop turning on day 25.

Hatching duck eggs in an incubator compare to the way they hatch in nature?

When the eggs are in the incubator the eggs are safe from predators and in nature the mother most be quick when she goes to get food because if she is gone for to long time she way lose her eggs because fox,eagles,and other predators. Here are the ways there are the same to hatch in an incubator and in nature. There are the same because it takes the same amount time to hatch in a incubator and hatch in nature the each take 28 days. When they hatch in a incubator and when they hatch in nature the Pekin ducks will still be sleepy and want to sleep a lot.

how to Incubate eggs

There are 14 duck eggs in are Incubator we numbered them at first there was 15 but it cracked in shipping. When we candle number 9 on the part that is suppose orange is yellow we saw gray dots witch means it might die. You need to be very quiet. We #erd them because we needed to talk about 1 pacifically.

We set are temperature 99.6F and the Humidity 57%. Are Incubator terns it 4 times a day. It turns vertical.the mother duck dose that by shifting her body. you place them fat side up because when they are about to get out they move their head to the fat side. You have to put water in a container. If you touch them do not shake them or drop them because they will die. :(
