Oh no! Do you have an incubator?

 

[Awtdaniel05]

Put it in an incubator

 

[Kiki]

Is there any liquid coming out of it?

 

[Chickenluver106]

No liquid, and I’ve never used the incubator for duck eggs, so I’m not sure how to set it up correctly

Do you want to try to use your incubator?

Difficult how?

You either need to incubate it or put it back under her and hope for the best or end its life.
