What breed of duck is this egg?

[mshap7]

I just found out that what I thought are chicken eggs are actually duck eggs! But I need help identifying what breed so I know how long to incubate them for! Attached pictures of the eggs and one egg candled at day 10.

I got these eggs from a farm and they said they weren’t sure who laid the eggs. The worker I spoke to didn’t seem very informed.

Unfortunately I think they’re too small to be pekin eggs. They’re so small I was convinced they were chicken eggs! Hopefully they are not muscovy eggs and I will incubate for 28 days.

I would suggest that you candle them every week or so, and listen/watch extra-carefully as it gets to 21 days (chicken), 28 days (most ducks), 35 days (Muscovy ducks).

So why are you sure they are duck eggs? Does the farm only have ducks?

I’ve looked on this website quite a bit and I actually think they are muscovy eggs!

I believe they are duck eggs because the embryos aren’t as developed as a chicken egg should be at this stage. I also posted a thread on here and had two people tell me they look like duck eggs.
