Duck Not Sitting on Eggs Again?

My duck started sitting on the 8 eggs she laid on the 19th of May 2020. Suddenly I found only 7 eggs. I don't know where the 8th one is and today is the first of June. I had noticed 3 days back that now my duck is not sitting on her eggs again. What may be the cause or are the eggs ready to hatch?

Normally it takes 28 to 35 days for the eggs to hatch once the duck starts to sit on the eggs. If you do not see the eggs hatching after 45 days it is time to pick them up and throw them away. You should try and leave the duck alone and allow her to take care of her nest and eggs by herself. Bothering her like this will make her nervous and will cause her to stop sitting on her eggs. Allow nature to take its course and allow her to take care of the eggs. Please do not worry about all of this and she knows what she is dong now.
