Ducklings May 2021
Three more ducklings are hatched!
Night 2 - and the remaining three duck eggs hatch out overnight in their incubator. The first duckling then seems to busy itself preening the second, and then the pair of them start snuggling up to the last egg and pecking at its shell, helping the last duckling to emerge!

The first duckling breaks out of its eggshell around 02:30!
Second duckling hatching, first duckling fluffing up
Robins had a delivery of duck eggs on Tuesday 18th May 2021, which have started hatching overnight! In this timelapse video they are in the safety of the incubator until later on they will be ready to move house to the larger warm cage.
