What day is this Muscovy duck egg on?

[BrendaM13]

We have Muscovy eggs in our incubator but are not sure of what day the eggs are on. We saved the eggs after their Mama was killed by an unknown predator. 😢 Any guesses on what day the eggs are on based on this video/pic?

I don't think that egg is viable I don't see any veining.

@shawluvsbirds ?

It has veins - just not visible in pic - and it is moving around a lot inside there - we can see it’s eye and beak when it wiggles around

Here is video - though you can’t see veins very well in video either. 🤦‍♀️Here is video

Well sure looks like something is def alive in that egg.
Are you prepared to take care of these ducks when they hatch?

I could see lots of life! I saw its eye, bill, and body.Tthat's a good egg for sure! I have a link from metzer's egg chart that tells the days except I know Muscovy take longer to hatch but I don't remember exactly how long. The chart should give you a good idea.

I'd say it might be in the middle of its time to hatch? @WVduckchick will probably know for sure.

I have never seen one quite like that and I have candled many Muscovy eggs.

We thought it looked a little different to us too. Looked “normal” until the end then it looked strange

I believe they take 35 days. Thanks for the link.

Yes - we are prepared to take care of them. We have hatched ducks before. 😊
