Egg Turner for Ducks?

[alasmith32]

I am hoping someone can help me. I have an LG still air incubator and would like to incubate some duck eggs. Can I use an egg turner for this or do I need to turn the eggs manually?
Thanks!

I have the same incubator and with the last hatch of duck eggs, I had 8 eggs, that was bought over ebay, and shipped thry the mail. I used a turner and got 6 out of 8 mallards to hatch. They are so cute.

I am using a turner for my duck eggs - but they are call duck eggs, only the size of chicken eggs. Not sure how the larger eggs would do (heighth-wise) in a turner.

The goose eggs I have to hand turn (laying them on their side - way too big for a turner).

Thanks for the info This is the first time I've incubated since I was in 4-H. I am so nervous! I really want this to go well. I'm really worried about turning the eggs myself..
