    Duck eggs

    I have set 4 duck eggs under my broody chicken and have 12 in the incubator, Is there anything i need to do different compared to chicken eggs? Is it right they go for 28 days instead .. The breeds are Khaki Campbells and Moscovy (Someone told me it was 23 and i read 28 which is right ??)
