Hey - was in a similar situation - 20 eggs, so you figure the mother must have been laying for a few weeks.
Muscovy eggs need to incubate for a full 5 weeks (a week longer than other ducks)
But once they're laid, if she isn't sitting on them they can sit out for weeks. Once they start being incubated, that's what prompts the growth of the embryo.
