Call Drake breeding with larger duck

[BrittsChicks]

So...I have a call drake mating with a Swedish duck...Has anyone ever heard of fertilized eggs resulting from a call drake and an average sized duck?... (I have 7 eggs in the incubator and wondering if I’m wasting my time and incubator space)...

it would suprise me given the size difference but you can’t rule it out entirely I guess. He has to make the best of his performance
interesting thought since I have two ducks wo are very different in size

Do you have a fresh egg from your hen Swedish? If so, you can crack it ina dish. Post pics of it. The blastoderm would be present if fertile.
Note : incubated eggs won't work for this.

Good point! I’ve broken open many of her eggs before (as I use them for baking)and I’ve never seen a blastoderm....
They seem to have “sessions” every day so I thought maybe...but I guess not....

If you have one and can crack it in a dish we'll be able to tell if its fertile.

Alright here’s a few pics...
I see a blastodisc not a blastoderm...but you tell me if you’re seeing something different...

Yeah, they look infertile. Sorry.
