Hello Ed, My research on the WWW found that it takes about 28 days for most duck eggs to hatch. While I was unable to find an incubation time specific to Muscovey ducks, this is probably a good estimate for your little friend. And yes, she may go on to breed again this year. Here are some web sites about Muscovey ducks and incubation information: http://home.att.net/%7EDanCowell/incubation.html http://metzerfarms.com/hatch.htm http://www.zooregon.org/cards/Ed%20Program/duck.muscovey.htm Sincerely, Allison J.
