Help with hatching duck egg

[Paulanc]

This is my first time hatching duck eggs. I do not have an incubator and I'm using a plastic container with a heat bulb from my babies chickens. I know it needs to be between 99 and 101 in temp, I have a bowl of water in the container with the eggs....
I am only doing 6 eggs right now until I know if this will work.
Do I need to keep it closed with the light heating the lid to keep it warmer and the humidity higher for them?
I know I have to turn them and mist them...how often for each?
How long does it take for them to hatch?
When can I candle them and see if they are fertile?

Thanks for any help!

This is what it looks like.....what if anything do I need to change?

Hi, I think you are going to need to be able to enclose them at a certain point. I am not a hatcher, but I do look over some of the hatching threads.

Have you seen the sticky on hatching waterfowl eggs? this one applies to goose and duck, if I understand correctly.

Then there is a Hatching forum - that is mostly chickens but some folks hatch both.

And sometimes I send people over to the Call Ducks Finally Hatched thread here on the Duck Forum, because there are hatchers there.

I don't know who has used DIY systems, but probably at least a few have.
