Hi everyone,
I know some of us here still don't know the difference between foreign ducks (mallard-derived),Muscovies (local ducks) and MULLARDS which people sometimes mistake for a foreign duck
Well obviously from the looks you can tell the difference (below is a pic of some of my foreign ducks @Ryeofarms)

About that it depends on how you raise them if you raised them in a coop / barn they won't really be interested in hatching their eggs but if you free range them and infant even rear them together with the locks on free range its possible they hatch their eggs on their own but since I keep them mostly in the coop (they only take a stroll out in the morning and then afternoon) I prefer to let my chickens do the hatching for them
RYEOFARMS(m): 11:08am On Dec 11, 2020
The thing is they get spooked easily even the slightest of strange sound or movement scares them so if they're going to lay their eggs and hatch them on their own they need some freedom and secrecy(somewhere hidden from other ducks and animals)

And I guess you all know what a Muscovy (local duck) is like but I'll pics in a bit.
Then that leaves us with MULLARDS; they occur as a result of crossbreeding btw Muscovies and Mallard-derived ducks

How do you do that?

if you mean the hatching process?!
To do that you have to be very vigilant as to notice when your chicken is Broody/starts to lay eggs...Once you observe a Broody hen all you have to do is replace the hen's egg with that of the ducks and this must be done before the hen starts to incubate the eggs so as to achieve 100% accuracy...After doing all these if the eggs are fertile then the hen will definitely hatch them after 28 days
