Chicken or duck eggs?

Hi! I’m incubating my first batch of eggs but I’m not 100% sure if they’re chicken or duck eggs. I believe they are chicken eggs but just in case I thought I’d ask for another opinion. I attached a picture of the eggs and one egg candled on day 10.

I'm thinking you have duck eggs. They just have that smooth, waxy, shiny look that duck eggs have.

X2! The embryo looks too small to be a day 10 chicken egg too.

Thanks! I really appreciate it. I wanted to make sure before I put them in lockdown as chicken eggs!

Thanks! That’s what I was thinking! The embryos don’t look as developed as what I’ve researched chicken eggs should look like at this stage.

No problem! Let us know if they hatch!
