Question

If i find a lost duck egg and mother didn't came back and put it next to a tree would a another duck raise it?

Answer 1

nope dont touch it if you already have then you need to get it under a incubator know if u want to rasie it i know some one that has a duck for a pet they are not that hard to take care of mess tho  

Answer 2

No, you would have to put it under a nezting duck.  Birds don't go out looking for eggs to hatch ~ they have their own brood to tend to.

Answer 3

don't touch it...if you do, the mother will never even sit on the egg again...let alone raise the duckling.  If you have already touched it, you may as well cook it up and chow down because it will not survive...

Answer 4

Highly doubt it.

IF you have chickens with a hen that is currently "sitting" on eggs, she just might hatch it for you.

Hen chickens can and do hatch other poultry species.

Duck eggs generally take 28 days of incubation to hatch and chickens 21 days of incubation to hatch.
