Are these duck eggs mallard type or muscovy type?

The unpretty ones

I'm not keeping any I just want to try. The last time I tried to hatch ducks was the unpretty breed. In an incubator after a longgg time I went to throw them and one blew up in my hand. I had brown goo all over me and was the only time I ever threw up from a smell

Those are the long haul ones. 35 days average.

Yeah I read that earlier. Good thing I looked it up I thought 28 like others.

Ended up with 28 chicks.

Next lockdown Thursday night.

Lost the youngest chick under One Leg. Quick glance showed no other losses. So she should have 3 Java mixes, 1 sexlink and the rest pheonixs. Also think I miscounted. I think she should have had 8, not 9 last night, so she should have 7 now. I'll check when I get home.
