Call Duck Egg Hatching Instructions
1. Let the shipped eggs rest at room temperature for 24-48 hours after receiving them. They should be kept pointy end down.
2. Set up the incubator at least 24 hours in advance of placing the eggs in it.
Incubator settings:
• Temperature = 99.5F to 100.5F
• Humidity = First 27 days 50-55%, Last 3 days (Lockdown) 70-75%
• Number of Incubation Days = 26-28
3. Skip this step if you have an automatic turner. On Days 1-24, each day hand turn the eggs 3 times a day.
TIP: Mark X and O on opposite sides (the long sides, not the top and bottom) of the eggs to make turning them easier.
For example:
Turn #1: turn eggs 180 degrees to X (all eggs show the X)
Turn #2: turn eggs 180 degrees to O (all eggs show the O)
Turn #3: turn eggs 180 degrees to X (all eggs show the X)
4. On any day between Days 7-10, candle each egg to see if they have started growing. You will see a small red dot with veins (very faint). If you are not sure, wait a day or two and candle again.
5. On Days 10-25, each day:
• Remove the incubator cover or pull out the egg bins, depending on your type of
incubator, for 10-15 minutes to cool the eggs.
• After 10-15 minutes, mist the eggs with warm water and replace the incubator cover or reinsert the egg bins into the incubator. Make sure to maintain correct temp and humidity.
6. On Day 26, start of lockdown:
• Remove or stop the automatic turner, if you have one.
• DO NOT TURN, COOL, or MIST the EGGS.
• Increase humidity to 70-72%.
On Days 26-28, the eggs will begin to hatch. Do not open the incubator unless it is absolutely necessary, as this could stunt or stop the hatching process.
7. Let the ducklings dry in the incubator for up to 72 hours before moving them to a warm brooder with food and drinking water.

Happy Hatching! Good Luck!

Irish Stone Farm Policy on Hatching Eggs (Shipped and Pick Up)

We offer chicken, call duck, and Sebastopol geese hatching eggs.

Shipped hatching eggs are a risk due to the treatment and handling by the shipping carrier and the weather. We package the eggs carefully, but how the package is handled after we send it is out of our control.

Fertility is not guaranteed; however, all our eggs currently in incubation have been 90% fertile.

Hatching is not guaranteed since there are too many factors that go into incubating and hatching shipped eggs. We include a hatching instruction sheet with helpful tips.

We ship the hatching eggs on Mondays and Tuesdays by USPS Priority Mail. USPS transit time is usually 2 to 3 days.

NOTE: We ship to the Contiguous United States Only (Not AK/HI). We do not offer International shipping.

NOTE: If you would like the hatching eggs marked "Hold for Pickup" at your local post office, include your phone number and contact person's name when you pay for them.

NOTE: We also offer free pick up (no shipping cost) at the farm in Temple, NH.

NOTE: If you cannot accept the risk associated with shipped eggs, do not buy them!

NOTE: We sell hatching eggs on several platforms, so get your eggs now while they are available.

No Replacements *** No Returns *** No Refunds
