My duck is sitting on chicken eggs

[Brooke Carson]

Reporting back--the first batch of eggs she sat on never hatched. I don't know if it got too hot or if she leaves the nest too much or what but she's determined to hatch more and keeps stealing new eggs all the time. I'm not sure what we're going to do with her if she doesn't hatch something soon because she's DETERMINED to do it despite the first batch not hatching. We had a wild dog break into our brooder and steal a sitting hen and we gave her those eggs, hoping she'd have a shorter sit to finish that batch up if she can, so, I guess if that batch hatches, I'll report back.
