In A Guide to Better Hatching, by Janet Stromberg, She suggests for most ducks 28 days at 99.5 degrees. Muscovy ducks take 35-37 days. A still air incubator is recommended and increasing the temperature by 2 to 3 degrees. The book can be gotten by contacting Stromberg Publishing Box 400, Pine River, Minnesota 56474. All kinds of poultry, advice is found in the book. Happy hatching. Dogma

A duck made its nest by your house and then the duck abandoned the eggs and a raccoon ate most of the eggs and two are left what should you do?

That happened to me last year. I bought an incubator and was able to hatch the eggs. Those same ducklings are now laying this year. As they lay, I gather the eggs and incubate. So, far we have 3 ducklings and about 6 in the incubator.
