Most ducks will stay on the nest and incubate their eggs for 27 days. They will not start incubating until the last egg has been laid, usually laying one egg per day.

After mating and building the nest, there is approximately 2-3 weeks before the egg laying begins. Once the female begins to lay, she will produce a new egg every 12-24 hours and it can take up to 2-3 weeks before all the eggs are laid. Once she has laid all her eggs then the incubation period begins and usually lasts about 6 weeks before hatching. Males and Females alternate sitting on the eggs during the incubation period.
