Advice needed - fairly urgent

I have 2 pairs of call ducks and this is my first breeding season. I want the ducks to do the incubating and brooding and they have just started laying.
I need advice regarding what to do with the eggs. It's still really cold at night and I don't want the drop in temperature to damage eggs so should I take the eggs out of the nest boxes at night and put them back in the morning or just leave them as moving them would risk upsetting the ducks?
Hope someone can help.

Hi, i normally leave one or tweo and store the rest indoors at a low steady temp- you will need to turn them at least once a day if not more- then when the duck is broody give her them back- or at least the last 10 or so freshest.
regards, david :)
