I’ve been reading a lot of the posts on here and checking online. We inherited two ducks, a female that is a Pekin and unsure of the male, possibly a Mallard. The Pekin has laid eggs and this started around the end of September and her last around October 11. In total we had 17 eggs, but we are done to 15. As we have never had ducks or chickens, I am not sure what to do now. I tried to candle but I don’t think I’m doing it right nor was I sure if I should touch the egg. My husband broke an egg and it had a yolk. She is still sitting on them, however, today, she rolled one out of the nest. What do I do? When do I remove all eggs and discard them? Is there a trick to candeling and being sure I know what I’m looking for? Can I touch the eggs? Any advice would be helpful! I’m just starting to worry that too much time has passed and they are not fertile. Thank you in advance!
