Incubating a Duck Egg?

My cat gave me what looks to be a duck egg, I put it under a lamp that is about 30°c and put some wool around it, it was still rather warm when she gave it me. Any hopes of it surviving or do you think it's already dead?

Duck eggs take about 3 weeks to hatch. If it doesn't hatch by then, it's no good.

Most likely not, and you would need either a duck hen or an incubator. A light or lamp won't do it. We have raised chickens and ducks for years on our farm.

the main problem is you really don't know how long it's been sitting there for. Possibly a vet or a wildlife expert has some machinery that could aid you in that but chances are you'd be incubating a rotten egg
