are they dead?????

[chickboss]

If your Muscovy hen is the mother, and the father is a Mallard derived drake, those eggs should take 35 days to hatch. So those should still be good! Give the eggs from that cross a few extra days, see what happens. Hope this helps.

ok..i will watch this space!

p.s the father is a khaki campbell cross/ornimental duck cross

does that mean the other eggs are dead

I would toss them. eggs usually weigh less as they grow.

you could try the new stethescope idea to hear heartbeats...

If it were me I would put one of the non muscovy eggs inside a ziplock bag and crack it open.

I agree. I would never throw out an egg without being 100% sure they are not alive. Good luck.

It's a plastic freezer storage bag.

you can use a doctors stethescope to listen to the heartbeats.
