Incubating Mallard eggs

[smcdon]

I am new at hatching duck eggs, and I was wondering what temperature I should set the incubator at? Also, how many days does it take to hatch mallard eggs? What day would I need to stop turning them? Thanks.

Is there any place that I can find this information?

From what I understand, they need the same temps as chicken eggs (around 99.3-99.6F), but slightly higher humidity, mind you the RH% people use ranges from dry to high. They take 28 days to hatch and you go into lockdown on day 25. Haven't done it myself, but good luck!
