Awesome. If you don't candle, how long til a non-viable egg will explode? Because I'd be tempted to just skip that step...

A week, maybe 2. Once you've had it happen once, you'll never risk it again 🤣

Hi just to ask i got a egg incubator when do the air vents get opened do the vents get opened only on lock down day. Or do the vents need to be half open throughout the whole processes.
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 2 месяца назад
@alesharobinson8461 air vents can be open and shut to help with temperature and humidity management. When and if to to use them all depends on your location and environment.

Excellent video very informative thank you. We have 15 chickens and are looking to keep runner ducks as well. I know it’s getting near the end of the season now, but I’d quite like to try hatching some runner duck eggs. I’m going to purchase the incubator shown in the video and want to try 12 eggs. Do you sell and post the eggs we are in north wales so unfortunately nowhere near you. Thanks

I’m on day 14, all is going well so far…..except since watching your fantastic video I have since realised that circular piece of cardboard that I put in the bin weeks ago wasn’t just packaging😬.. do you think it’s vital? I have the mini so there are only 5 eggs. :)

Love this video. What temp and humidity should they be at ? Incase I missed that part :-) because you manually turned yours I was reading you can’t keep opening the incubator due to loss of heat and moisture ? :-)
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 4 месяца назад
These incubators automatically control heat and moisture, you can open them, no different than a mother leaving the nest to eat and drink

@@CourtFarmChickens also if the chicken is out of the shell and it’s been over 30 hours can you cut the cord near the shell bit and not the bit near the duckling ?

@CourtFarmChickens 4 месяца назад
@yusuufibrahim530 yes it will be fine to detach at the egg end, the rest should dry up and fall off

@@CourtFarmChickens thank you. He has survived another night. He’s abit wobbly on he’s feet but I’ve put some plasters to keep he’s feet open and so he can balance. I got chick crumb I am grinding into a powder with some water and egg cooked yolk. I read brewers yeast is very good to add. Do you recommend anything to help give him a good boost ? :-)

Got a question for you if you can answer it sure would appreciate it the hatching pad you put in there the circle is it made of cardboard or is it made of cloth material? Thanks.
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 7 месяцев назад
Hiya, it's a thin corrugated cardboard, a cloth alternative would work just as well I'd imagine.

Hello few questions.. I started incubating ducks today, did u monitor the humidity is it really necessary to monitor it ? Secondly my brinsea mini has no outside reservoir how do I fill the water during lock down? And one more question do I HAVE to mist the eggs once a day from 10 days onwards as I saw you didn't and wondered if this was also necessary? Thank you
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 3 года назад
Hiya, if you have an older model with no outside reservoir then try to fill it right to the top and only open to refill if it goes dry. I do not monitor the humidity at all, just the water level and never had an issue. I'll be honest, never heard of 'misting' the eggs so no, never done that.

So when the pip is it the same time as chicks, or do they take longer currently incubating pekin duck eggs
@Kappucinokiss1
@Kappucinokiss1 7 месяцев назад
Also do they not need food after hatching same as chicks?
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 7 месяцев назад
They do take longer than chick's to hatch, could be around the 27 day mark. They absorb the yolk sack the same as chick's so are OK for a few days. You may need to show them how to eat, ducks are not as smart as chick's.
@Dovejep

Why couldn't you have just snuck your fingers up in there and take out the old egg shells instead of moving the babies out?
@CourtFarmChickens
@CourtFarmChickens 3 года назад
Because it had been 12 hours, if you're going to open the lid it makes more sense to move live ducklings than empty egg shells..

Unless it's an automated one then rules will basically be the same, stop turning the eggs a couple of days before they're due
