Incubating Duck Eggs, Hatching Day!

in ghsc •  6 years ago 

Hatching Day is TODAY!

My calculations were off by a day and the eggs are now starting to hatch. I started the count at day 0 and I guess day Zero is supposed to be day One. It's not the first time I've made a mistake like that.

Anyway today is hatching day!


I'm using an old cell phone as the EggHatchingCam and with the Video and Wi-Fi active it drains the battery faster than it can charge and will go offline in about 7 hours from now. I have a replacement on the way and should have it set up this evening. So the BabyDuckCam will not go offline when that happens.

You can see the EggHatchingCam on our Mean Rooster Farm LIVE! channel now.


Stay tuned because the BabyDuckCam is only a day away now and that's when the Action starts!

p.s. I guess I didn't just jinx everything by counting my eggs before they hatched.

Your in luck, @vimm didn't make it to the 20K delegation finals. If they did I would have had to vote for them. Thanks for reminding me about the vote, I would have missed it.

@homesteaderscoop just got 3 more votes, from @meanbees @goat-girlz and @meanroosterfarm

8 of the 12 duck eggs hatched. The DuckEggHatchingCam was cool but BabyDuckCam is the cutest thing we've done so far.

Make sure to check it out it will make your day.

Wow! We really appreciate the votes @meanbees @goat-girlz and @meanroosterfarm!! It means a lot to us that you are supporting our new community :)

Oh I am going to check out the baby duck cam now... sounds well worth a watch! I am hoping they are fuzzy :)

omg adorable!! thanks for sharing that it definitely does make my day :) they are too cute! soo. why did you give them 1 dollar anyway?

It's for size reference. The camera has a pretty distorted view and the ducks grow so fast I wanted a way to measure the growth that more or less everyone worldwide could relate to.

Baby duck at 4 days old.
