Unfortunately I have no duck experience, so I won't put in my two cents on this, but I was thinking, perhaps if you post this also in the "ducks" section someone with more knowledge on ducks might get back to you? Good luck.

They will be hatching this march. It's my first time incubating without a broody hen. I keep catching myself wandering into the bathroom and staring at the eggs through the 'bator window.
I'm so excited. I know you're not suppose to count your chickens (and ducks) before the hatch... but one can dream...
*sighs* The anticipation is driving me nuts
