I recently got a male/female pair of calls. They are one year old.
The hen has 5 eggs so far. I am just wondering if they are know to be broody if I leave the eggs, or if I should just stick them in my incubator. I would rather not do that as I've read that calls are hard to incubate, but there's no sense wasting eggs if she most likely wont brood.
Thanks!

I know there is someone on BYC that has calls and lets their duck hatch but for the life of me can't remember who, but I guess they do know how to brood, it may just depend on the duck though.
 
Thank you miss Lydia! She has 7 eggs now but only sits on them in the morning. There are no other ducks with her aside from her mate. So I'm hoping she will set for me!
