Are they muscovy eggs? They take 33-35 days to hatch.

One more pipped, but stopped. So guessing only one of 10 eggs.
Name? We are raising for food, so we band them, but Don't necessarily name them unless breeding stock. If it's a female she will stay. Male will get fattened up to be dinner.

We put our duck with her duckling.
Even tho we hatched it for her in the incubator.
They seem to be doing well. She isn't attacking us yet when we reach in yet.
