Broody Duck Eggs Failed?

[NuttHouse]

My momma duck has been sitting for 35ish days, so I don't think her eggs are going to hatch. If I go buy baby ducks and put them with her will she raise them?! I know they probably need to be super tiny, but is this going to work? Would I just replace her eggs with ducks if she moves from the nest? Any advice is appreciated! She has worked so hard to be a mom and I'm wanting some more ducks anyway, I just don't wanna go get baby ducks if she's not gonna take care of them!

Slip the ducklings under her at night when it is dark. This will allow her to bond with their movement and 'talking' during the night. Check on them periodically to see how things are going.
