I recently ordered the Genesis 1588 incubator (heard nothing but good things about it) and a 1611 egg turner from Cutler Supply. My buff orpington ducks are laying like crazy and I am hoping to hatch some ducklings this summer. While browsing the web, I came across someone saying that duck eggs don't do well in tilting egg turners (which I assume the 1611 is). For those who have experience with this sort of thing, would the 1611 turner work with them? I could always do it by hand, but I'd rather not disrupt the humidity and temperature by opening the incubator.
 
i have hatched ducks and turkeys with the 1611 turner, you just have to space them out, skip a hole, stagger them out. mine did fine.
