  • The hatching of the rarest ducklings on earth.
    Hi everyone we’re back with a wonderful story about three ducklings of a species that has almost gone extinct.
    Ever since I was a little boy, ducklings have been my first love.
    So I was thrilled when I got the chance to get some precious rare eggs to incubate and help to protect a once famous duck species from vanishing for good.
    The Anas Curvirostra - The Hook Bill
    It was capable of producing over 300 eggs a year and had a funny appearance with its curved beak.
    Once there were millions of this ducks and now there are only about 80 good (well formed) egg laying female ducks of the Hook Bill left.
    I got in contact with a man that is trying to keep the species alive.
    We discussed that giving this duck some attention and telling its story could maybe help.
    I have learned a lot from him and I was also happy to share my 30+ years of experience in incubating and raising ducklings.
    The species could use your help. So in case you’re serious about keeping ducks and you’re interested in the Hook Bill, please send us a mail at SaveHookBill@gmail.com and we will take a look at the possibilities in your country.
    Text in this video:
    About one hundred years ago
    Duck eggs were more important than chicken eggs
    One kind of duck in particular was famous for its egg production
    And its funny appearance…
    The Hook Bill
    Once, there were millions of them
    Now, all those ducks are gone
    Except for about 80 egg laying female ducks
    To me that is sad
    So I visited a man much like myself
    And offered my help in trying to save…
    The species from going extinct
    I got four rare and precious eggs to put in my incubator
    Duck eggs need special treatment
    They need to breathe and cool down 10 minutes a day
    In three of them…
    Life started
    Exactly as planned, after 28 days I could hear the first one…
    That night
    Now IF she is a she, she will be of real importance to her species
    She will be one of the ast 80 (and now +1 :) survivors
    I was very excited
    For a duckling this rare I had never seen before
    Under a mother duck…
    The egg would be crushed a little, which helps the duckling to hatch
    She was clearly exhausted
    Yet her sound was strong and relaxed
    Outside the incubator, I always keep them warm with my breath
    Hello little friend
    The next morning the second one hatched
    Yeeee… a yellow one
    Hmmmm, better keep her with me some more
    An hour later it was almost dry
    Whilst the first two were going as planned
    I thought the third one would be fine as well…
    When it was hatching, I thought everything was alright
    And still I thought everything was fine
    I even thought it was funny how much she matched my beard
    …but then I noticed…
    This I had seen before…
    Her balance was not functioning
    Oh no!
    She would not be able to walk or eat
    This means her chance of survival were close to zero
    But I’ve been taking care of ducklings…for 30 years
    If I can fixate her for one whole night
    She has a small chance her balance recovers
    The next morning…fingers crossed
    I’m sorry I just can’t always fix it…
    So far so good
    Now….please, please be able to walk
    Here we go little friends
    Time for some fresh food
    Three weeks later

      Yethet myth I’m going to assume he’s over 25 years old, mostly because a 7 year old is likely to be swearing (and if he is that’s a strange and sad childhood)(my opinion )and he probably cried a lot when he was 7-9. (I did) and judging from that 15 is the minimum but he’s probably over 20 if I has to guess he’s 29 (no offense).

    When I was in grade school, we hatched some chicken eggs. They ALL were like the last duck. It was deeply upsetting. This was the late 90s/early 00s before the internet was widely available and helpful in situations like this.
    It really warmed my heart to see the last duck recover. Like, tears in my eyes.
    Unfortunately I don't know what became of the chicks from my classroom. My teacher kinda told us that she had taken them to a farm. And, you know, fourth graders know what that means, they aren't dumb lol.

So far, even though I know you cant save every life, I see that you go all out, do your best and for animal lovers like me, it's hard to see the ones that dont make it. So far I havent seen any of your videos that show the failed help. Thank you. For soft hearted people like me, I will cry, think about it for months. Ty, ty, ty. Love every video very much. Such a blessing to us all to have good people working to help all of Gods creatures as you do. Bless you!

    • @ThatOherDude
      @ThatOherDude 5 лет назад +67

      sometimes they need just a bit more time to develop, so the sock acts like an egg, keeps them from moving around too much, and allows the body to sorta catch up. It doesn't always work, but sometimes it does

    • @harrysarso
      @harrysarso 5 лет назад +18

      or maybe it similar how people can adapt to those glasses where you see everything upside down it takes like a week i think but you can do it
      in the same way a new born duckling still has a very malleable mind that is rapidly developing and by forcing them to stay still and upright in the sock the brain
      can adopt that as the new normal which is of course a major developmental change but that is why it only works sometimes and only ducklings ?
      that is my guess

      Every generation has it's horrific nightmarish people. But .... something is just going downhill and all I ever see anymore is anger and crazy! .... it's scary! :( I even see children (young boys around 10+years) being exposed to social media p*rn! ...... (yes..... p*rn... not just twerking!)
      Instagram used to be a gorgeous photography site. Now my feeds are bombarded with unwanted TIK TOK posts of people arguing about Lip Liner.....
      I saw a post of a girl doing gothic lipstick and I got sucked into the comments and I was so shocked to see so many people saying how it is racist to use black lip liner and how it isn't for white girls and their "thin ass" lips. They were not trolling ... I've never seen such craziness in my life back in 2010!
      We need better parenting and free mental health when severely needed!!!!! Medication should not be hundreds to thousands of dollars for ONE bottle!!!! 💔 the govt is trying to kill us :(
