12 Khaki Campbell hatching duck eggs
My ducks are free range and eggs are collected daily
Khaki Campbell ducks are a hardy general purpose breed that lays ~300 large white eggs a year. While they are capable of flight they seldom do and can be confined with a 48\" fence. Males and females can be easily identified at adulthood.
While a hand raised duck can be quite tame, Khaki Campbells are a bit skittish and a different breed would be more suitable as a pet.
Ducklings can go outside at 2 weeks during warm weather and 4 weeks in the cold.
Have your incubator set up and tested well before eggsarrive. Check the temperaturecalibration with an external thermometer before use and follow the manufacturer’sinstructions. Eggs should be stored point down at room temperature for 12 hoursthen placed in an incubator.
Normal Incubation times:
18 Days: Quail
21 Days: Chicken
28 days: Duck,Guinea, Turkey, Goose
35 days: Muscovy
After hatching your chicks will need several weeks in abrooder. Please search YouTube for informationand recommendations that work for you. Iuse heat lamps and 40-gallon storage bins for brooders
Please read the following carefully before ordering:
Eggs are fragile and purchasing shipped hatching eggs has riskof failure to hatch.
I hatch several 100 eggs a month and monitor quality and fertility.While I only ship the best I have, I sometimeeggs fail to develop. Delays, treatment andtemperature during shipping, storage and handling before incubation, incubationtemperature, humidity, turning frequency and other factors have significant effectson egg viability.
Each egg is marked with the date collected. Eggsolder than 5 days are not shipped to ensure eggs have time to arrive forsettling and incubation well within a 10-day window. After 10 days, eggs still have a good chance ofhatching, but the viability starts to fall. Eggs are usually shipped within 1 to 3 days ofbeing collected.
The US Post office is the only carrier that will carry eggs. Shipping labels are purchased through ’sseller platform and buyers can track the package through .
Eggs are packaged securely, but sometimes some willbreak. If have sufficient stock andspace in the box, I will add additional eggs to mitigate this risk. If eggs arrive with cracks, photograph theeggs and I will refund the broken eggs minus any extra eggs shipped.
Shipping label, packing, and boxing costs are notrefundable. Shipping label cost is determinedby the post office and packing and boxing is 5$.
