Hi,

I have a 11 Khaki Campbell ducks but none of the girls seam to want to sit on their eggs.  One duck managed to hatch out one duck last year but was looking for someone to take few of the eggs and see if they will hatch out.  I have looked for a fairly cheap incubator but have not see any yet. My friends incubator packed up last year. 

I know the spring is a bit later than normal so they might well still sit on eggs yet but if anyone could help me out that would be great.

Thanks for reading.

Hiya,  I'd gladly rent out some incubator space in return for a few of the hatchlings when they arrive.  I couldn't start them until w/c 17th June though, so you may have better offers.  If not, do give me a shout.

Cheers!

Stirling-ish, but I work in Grangemouth, so not too far away.
