The Classroom @ The Coop: Incubation/Raising Chicks Archive: Incubation times

What is the number of days that goose, duck, chicken, and guinea eggs need to be incubated before they will hatch? I asked this question last spring also, but I forgot the numbers already:)
Also, would it work to slip some duck eggs under a mother goose at the appropriate time so that they will hatch on the same day as the geese? Will she raise them side by side without a problem?
Thanks in advance,
Chrissie
