Yesterday, I picked up 8 call duck eggs from a farmer. She said the eggs were 2-3 weeks old, she was expecting the duck to go sit on the eggs, but she never did. Some of the eggs could be less than 2 weeks old, but most are probably around 2 weeks old. Do you think they are still fertile. I compared their air sacs next to a freshly laid call duck egg and it was about a quarter in diameter, but wasn't huge.
I am also laying them on their side and hand turning the eggs, I hear they do better like this than upright in an automatic turner? I am turning them 3 times a day!
Any advice is much appreciated!
