Refrigerated duck eggs

Will refrigerated duck eggs hatch?

Yes they will! As long as you haven’t washed the eggs off, they will be good for hatching!

Thanks! Do you know how long I should wait before incubating them?

How long were they refrigerated? Let them come up to room temp for about 2-3 hours

Definitely pull them out and sit on the counter until they are room temperature. I’ve set 75-ish eggs and had over 50 of the ducklings hatch with the eggs being in the refrigerator!!!

They were in the fridge for like a week, I hope they hatch. I bought some from someone that had some in the fridge. They said to leave them at room temperature for about two day's. How long were they in the refrigerator for?

Ok, they should still be good to hatch. I’ve had mine in the fridge for over two weeks before! Plus in the winter (it was 20°-35°) I found 20+ eggs and the did fine.
