I think that this is incorrect...both by observing the behaviour of spur winged plovers in our backyard in SE Qld and by the following information:

'The incubation period is 28-30 days but addled eggs have been incubated for 55-62 days. Young leave the nest almost immediately after hatching, and some young leave before all eggs have hatched.'
