It is my Day 28 with ancona duck eggs... But I don't see any sign of hatching Frown.  Any ideas? I candled till Day 25 and everything was perfect... Temp and humidity were all accurately set....

well..it's possible that you misjudged the days..on day 25 or 26, you should have seen maybe the internal pip?  Candle them again and see if you see movement..i would think you'd at least see a little cracking or signs of the little guys coming out.  I just hatched 4 of them a week ago and they actually started to hatch a couple days early..at least i saw the signs..i heard them peeping for like 4 days before they hatched.

Hey, I slept on the couch all night so that I could check on the eggs and if any of the babies hatched in the night, I could hear them. At the middle of the night, peeping sound awakened me and after some time of waiting, they all hatched.....

 

My 8 gorgeous looking baby ancona ducks!!!!  Couldn't wait to see what they were doing..... So rose up early (bit sleepy too Wink )   They are fine in the incubator. I'm so excited.. Watch out for the pics.. I will be posting soon!!!
