Caring for Abandoned Duck Eggs?

If there are broken wild mallard duck eggs in a nest in my garden will the mother come back? She's laid about 10 eggs over almost 2 weeks. Then stayed on the nest for 2 days and left. Now it's been just about 2 more days, and a few eggs are broken and we haven't seen her. Should I try to incubate? The temps are likely to be be in the high 30s tonight.

The duck will come back after she has laid her last egg. If she doesn't come back, you could try putting the eggs in an incubator.
