Our duck embryos develop in the incubator for 4 weeks. They will hatch around May 2-3. The incubator keeps the eggs at 99.2 degrees F and 55% humidity. In the wild, the mother duck will rotate the eggs several times per day. Our incubator rocks the eggs back and forth so that they do not sit on one side during their entire development.
All pictures and videos are of our ducks.
