Hey,

A friend of mine gave the eggs to me. Its pretty easy to raise the ducklings, just keep them warm, give them food(I buy it from a local feed store), water, and they are good to go. You could probably find much more detailed information on the net. I incubate the eggs at about 99F and turn as often as possible(every hour) until I see that they have started to hatch.

Thanks,

Andrew
