Help with my duck hatching !!!!!!!

[admzfmly6]

Please this is time sensitive I have a year old pekin duck that is brooding on eggs three of them she had cracked and just this morning I went in the pen and it looked like she took the egg and hatched it in the water dish for there was a dead duckling and the egg in the dish !!!! Do I remove the rest of the eggs and try to incubate them my self or just leave the rest and think something was wrong with the other three ? So new to this I was heart broken at what I saw please anyone help me !!!!!!

This is a link to a specific Pekin duck club on here. They might be able to answer better. But I think you should be better safe then sorry. You might just need to hatch them your self. I am new to Pekins, well ducks in general. Wish I was more help sorry.

I am not sure I have always heard that Pekins are not broody but I am not sure about mothers? When you took the eggs did you replace them with some fake eggs so she is still sitting? Then maybe you can replace them one time with the babies. Let me know how it goes!
