Hi I have been incubating some eggs on hatch early and is not walking or anything just chirping CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY

Hi there! My duck has been incubating for about three weeks and a duckling has decided to hatch today! Completely healthy but too early. Mummy duck still has about 10 eggs that have another week to hatch and I’m worried baby won’t get any attention. Should I hand raise baby and what’s the best...

Hatching ducklings and went to put on lockdown (day 25) and I noticed one had pipped. He’s been making very little progress and it’s been 36 hours. Is he just not ready yet since he pipped early? He also pipped at the wrong end. And advice??? Two other eggs have internal pip and 2 more haven’t...
