the due date for my eggs[Pekin Ducks] are July the 28th.

I have 4 eggs.

they are inan incubator.

I found a Northern Mocking bird egg...and I put it in the incubator...Well, I didn't find it...but the construction workers knocked down a tree...and there were 2 eggs in a nest that was knocked down...but one cracked..and I have decided to take in the egg.

Birds I have:

4 parakeets.

1 parrott

2 love birds

17 finches

4 duck eggs[Pekin Ducks]

9 Canadian Geese

1 young Male I found as a naked baby with it's eyes closed, and I have managed to save

and this egg I just saved today.

DONOT TELL ME TO TAKE IT TO A WILDLIFE PLACE BECAUSE I ALREADY CALLED AND THEY SAID TO JUST KEEP IT IN THE INCUBATOR. AND I CALLED VETS, SHELTERS...EVERYTHING!!!! THEY ALL TOLD ME THE SAME THING:

"There is nothing we can do, just keep it in the incubator."

So when it hatches..I will keep it in the incubator...and feed it every 4 hours

and I will feed it mushed berries and dog food. Any advice?

  1. If it actually does hatch...this is when you need to take it to a rehab..many are not willing to take eggs, but they will take chicks.  It would be illegal for you to raise the chick..actually illegal for you to have the egg so not sure why the rehabs did not tell you this.  Look at this listing for some other options near you that might be willing to take the chick if not the egg:

    Also, vets and shelters really would not have any legal rights to taking care of wild birds...they would need to go to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator.

  3. id say call a hatchery if you know any out there my mom has been hatching chicken eggs but the humidity from chickens, pheasants to turkeys change

    have you candled it? take a flash lite and go into a dark room to find out if its alive as long as you see a black thing moving things are good for now

    Chicks fledge in 12 days
