Not certain but I think Ducks take 28 days to hatch.

Yes, the Ducks take that long unless they are Muscovy which I believe will take up to 35. I have hatched a duck. He is now 4 days old and is a Khaki Campbell. He externally pipped on Day 27 without an internal pip. Then proceeded to make no progress at all until a full assist hatch on Day 29. Whereas I lost the other 3 duck eggs because they couldn't pip and I being a newb didn't know the bruises were them trying to pip. But still, 25% hatch rate on my 1st duck incubation wasn't bad. But sad I lost the other three. He is now lonely and needs chicken buddies, who I am trying to figure out the fix for. I hope to one day be brave enough for the Call Duck Challenge but that is maybe a couple of years away.
