Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

[chickens really]

I found this thread yesterday and read it all.  Bouncer is such a cutie!

I am hoping that you all can help me.  I am relatively new to the duck world (I got my Anconas last year in June).  I have 3 drakes and 1 hen at the moment.  Last week I found 3 eggs in their pen area.  I gathered them and a friend has them in her incubator as we do not know if they were fertilized or not.  This morning I found another egg, this time in their house.  Should I leave it to see if Sable will sit on it or gather it? 

Thanks in advance for any advise. 

I would remove it or you can wait to let her finish laying all the eggs and see if she will set them?.....Not sure?......

Thanks for reading the journey............That must of took you awhile...


Cheers!

I was so intrigued I had to know what happened! Loved the story!!

How long should I wait to see if she sits before I can move to the incubator?

I am sure I will have lots of questions so I really do appreciate any help.

If you start your own thread, you might get more people to help. Do you know how to do that? I think theres a how-to in the help section.

I would incubate the eggs myself.....I collected mine and then incubated them.....Easier I found....My Chickens I get them to set those......
