Hatching Duck Eggs Day 7



Today was day 7 of incubation!  This was a very important day because today we got to candle our eggs to see if the baby ducks are developing. 



To candle the eggs we shined a light inside the egg.  We knew that on day 7, we should see a small black spot in the middle and veins. 


We were thrilled to see that all 7 eggs are developing as they should! 


We will candle our eggs again on day 14 to see if the eggs are still developing as they should.  We would expect to see a much larger baby chick in the center, lots of movement, and still some veins.

Ask your child to share with you what they saw today!
