ok thanks. that is good news i guess. it just means for us that the heat isnt affecting them at least. now that its been a little cooler the chickens are now moltig, so no eggs still from them. should i try to incubate the duck eggs or let her do it?

It true that pekins are not great nesters ...that said they do build
a nest that holds heat by a form of heat generated by burying the eggs
and moisture .... they also have a great sense of when an egg isn't
fertile and remove it from the nest.
