My Ducks Eggs Did not Hatch

[Cairns.Lowe1]

My Duck eggs did not hatch last time I think it didn't hatch because they got wet for several days by rain . I got two Pekins Drakes and one Muscovy duck. I'm waiting for new duck eggs this time I saw a Pekin drake mating mating my Muscovy duck this morning. I want to know how many days will take to lay the eggs.

Pls Help Me!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weather or not you have a drake does not effect your ducks egg production, but mating probably means it’s the time of year your duck will start laying eggs, (spring or summer). The amount of eggs your duck lays, and the days that the duck lays them depends on the individual, breed, and the time of year. The drake will not impact egg production.

thanks for your comment...

No worries
Before you try to hatch any eggs, crack one open to check if they are fertile, maybe the last ones were infertile.

Sorry to distract you again .Can I know some features of a non- fertile egg. [Because if I crack open an egg I should know how to check whether it's not fertilized.]

You can cross a pekin and a muscovy, but the resulting ducklings will never have babies of their own. They can lay eggs, but they won't be fertile. (I'm talking the offspring from the current cross, not the existing ducks)
