Incubating Ducks and Chickens

[PrettyPoultry]

I just received my orders of duck eggs and plan to set them tomorrow. I have the Sportsman 1502. I already have Marans in there, with humidity at 35%, temp 99.5. Is this okay for the duck eggs? And then bump the humidity up after lockdown. Thanks for any input/experience.

I incubate my duck, chicken, and goose eggs together and havent had any problems. I dont moniter the humidity the first 18 or 23 days. I just check to make sure the air cells are growing. I also cool and mist my duck eggs, so the chicken eggs get cooled and misted also. So far havent had a quitter, and have been having 100% hatches on the chicken eggs. Ducks are due next week.
