I was told on their side? I hatch them that way and hand turn.

Doubt this egg will hatch but some of the air cells float to the side when I put them on their side. Should I let them set the first couple of hours fat end up and incubate them on their sides?

Let my ducks out this morning and checked for eggs and found these two separate nest. I am going to leave them and see if someone will hatch them. I gathered all the eggs yesterday so these are from this morning. What y’all think???

Definitely wait and see if a Hen decides to set them.

Not yet. But I know that last year the white duck went broody on some eggs she laid. But unfortunately they were not fertile.
