When to lock down Mallard eggs

[Nametaylor11]

So im getting my first batch of mallard eggs tonorrow. I haven't been able to find out what day you lockdown the eggs on. Also if anyone has any tips and tricks on hatching ducks all advice is welcomed as this is my first attempt at ducks.

Mallard eggs normally take 28 days to hatch. Lockdown is 3 days prior to hatch day so day 25 is when you would stop turning. Remember that day 1 is 24hrs after the eggs have been set. Good luck with your hatch!
