If duck eggs get wet will they hatch?
The eggs need moisture to hatch, in nature, the moms leave the nest once a day for half hour to eat, drink and bathe themselves... when they come back wet, this provides needed moisture to the egg. If you incubate them it is important to study how much moisture to have in the incubator daily. It's impossible for a duck to ever get wet, even when it's a baby. Duck's have this one special oil in their feathers which makes water stay off them. This oil is provided to them by their mother when they are babies, but when they get older, they start producing it on their own in their mouths and they rub it onto their feathers. If your babies are born under an incubator, you need to wait until they are old enough before you let them swim, unless they have a mommy duck to coat their feathers.

How do chickens naturally incubate eggs?
The broody hen gathers eggs for about a week before. She will take eggs from other hens to add to her own lay. Once she decides she has enough she will sit on the clutch of eggs continually for 21 days. She turns the eggs by moving them around twice to three times per day. She only leaves the clutch for food, water and defecation a few times daily and never for more than 10 minutes at one time. Once the chicks start to hatch she will remove old shells and remain on the nest for days protecting the newly hatched chicks.

After the seven day period the first save lose better than 50% of their chance at hatch and that drops daily for every extra day saved thereafter.

Do bird eggs have to be incubated?
No. In the old days, before incubators, setting hens sat upon the eggs to keep them warm. I have a hen that sits on her eggs, even though they are not fertile. I have to lift her up to collect them.
