A female mallard delivered an egg on our patio. She got startled and left her egg. She has not returned for her egg. What should I do?

If you have an incubator you could put the egg in that.

Do you have a wildlife refuge or recovery service in your town? They are the best bet for calling or an animal shelter.

They will have all of the right tools to care for the egg.

Sadly the mom's usually leave eggs that are not viable...so there is a good chance that may have happened here.

I am sure there are YouTube videos for caring for duck eggs at home, but to be honest, I think these things -- if they are meant to be -- are best left to the pros.

Prayers and blessings.
