how long do duck eggs take to hatch?

[zebserema]

how many days what is the temp and humidity and can you sex day old ducklings?

Most ducks eggs take 28 days incubation, but muscovies take and extra week. The incubation is much the same as chickens - same temp but higher humidity. around 55% for the first 25 days- then when you stop turning the eggs bump it up to around 80%

Ducklings can be vent sexed from day old- but also their are a few that can be determined by colour ( down or bill colour )depending on their breeding.

My muscovy duck eggs take about 35 days.
