There is no way to assure gender in fertilized eggs, much to the concern of the major hatcheries as they would clearly love to produce ONLY hens. Cockerels are not nearly as in demand as hens and if they could, they would be very selective in the hatch. Having the incubation heat too high will however produce a higher than normal male to female ratio as the males can survive higher temperatures when in development. It does not work in the opposite direction however. Lower temperatures in the incubator just slows hatch and does not effect gender viability.
Call duck eggs typically take around 26-28 days to hatch, but the exact time can vary slightly depending on temperature and humidity levels during incubation. It's important to maintain stable conditions for the eggs to ensure a successful hatch.
Ducks typically lay around 7-15 eggs in a clutch, although this can vary depending on the species. After the ducklings hatch, they are known as ducklings and a mother duck can have as many ducklings as there were eggs in her nest.
Mallard ducks typically incubate their eggs for about 28 days. This means the eggs will likely hatch around a month after being laid. However, factors like temperature and weather can also affect the hatching time.
The hen's egg is fertilized in the formation process. They "save" the semen from roosters and their body's mechanisms deposit it into the yolk as it is created. If a rooster has mated with a hen anytime in the prior 7-10 days, the egg will be fertile as it is laid.

Nothing, Because This Is Impossible. All Eggs Will Hatch At A Different Time.
the chicks will be many

Bird eggs are laid at different times, so they usually hatch first laid first hatch and so on. This is more common among raptors. For other birds, embryos develop when the egg is incubated, and birds will delay incubation until all eggs are laid so that all the chicks will hatch at the same time.
When hatching duck eggs I put a wet sponge in the incubator when it starts to dry out wet it again- and always use warm water. 2 clutches? Do u have more then one hen? I find it odd shed do that.. are all the eggs in one nest? A mallard could well hmm hatch 8-10 eggs i think. I would suggest you do one of two things: (a) Cull the excess eggs because it is unlikely she will be able to hatch a very large clutch of eggs successfully. As tempting as it may be to try to let her hatch out 2 dozen or more, you are probably wasting her time and yours. (b) Invest in an incubator for the excess eggs. However, I have been told by poultry people that duck eggs can be difficult to hatch because of moisture/humidity concerns.
No it takes the same time but if you have a magmar and slugma put them in your party an will hatch fast

Yes you can, but it may take a couple of tries as you need the same amount of steps for the eggs to hatch at the same time. Also you need the space in you party to hold the eggs.

because some are premature
They quack
