Abandoned muscovy nest

[PaxtonSunny]

We have a muscovy who has disappeared from her nest. Eggs were scattered about and some eaten by the pond. She may have been killed. I think it's been about 5 days. Can I put these eggs in my incubator? There are clearly ducks in the eggs but not sure if now dead? So sad.

If it's been 5 days since she quit sitting in them, I'm sure that they're dead. You would have had to take them within a few hours after she left. You can post candling pics if you have any.
