broody breeds.....?

[coalcluff7]

hi everyone, i was wondering if my ducks will sit on their own eggs and hatch well when they lay fertile eggs or go for an incubator?
my females are indian runners, a call duck and a muscovy.....

You have your own incubator in your Muscovy. Some Runners will brood and so will Call so I think you got it covered.

Muscovy are by far the BEST duck breed for brooding

My calls will go broody now and then but they are more seasonal so only think about it in the spring. But my muscovy hatch March through November (if I let them!)
