Do chicken and duck eggs incubate at different temperatures?

Yes, chicken and duck eggs incubate at slightly different temperatures.

* Chicken eggs: Incubate at 99.5°F (37.5°C).

* Duck eggs: Incubate at 99.5°F (37.5°C), but they are more tolerant of temperature fluctuations.

The ideal temperature for incubating both chicken and duck eggs is the same, but duck eggs are slightly more tolerant of variation. This means that while the optimal temperature for both is 99.5°F, duck eggs can still develop properly if the temperature fluctuates slightly more than it would for chicken eggs.

Important to note: These are general guidelines. Different breeds of chicken and duck may have slightly different incubation requirements. It's always best to consult specific incubation instructions for the particular breed you are incubating.
