Day 28 no Pipping Call ducks.

Like @casportpony said any duckling friend will do, the smaller the better.

No change on the egg that I popped an air hole into this morning? I’m assuming I need to do a full assist? It’s day 29.

I think he’s shrink wrapped. I’ve made the hole slightly bigger and when I look inside the membrane is around his body with just the bill in the air sac. He is making noises like swallowing so I’m guessing that’s him still absorbing the yolk not struggling to breathe?

I put coconut oil on the membrane and put him back, he is now chirping away. I’ll follow the instructions on the link you sent. When I tell you I’m so nervous right now!

He has kicked himself out. It’s been about 3 hours now and it seems there’s still some yolk attached. It looks pretty dry though? Do I leave it or should I be doing something?

Let it rest for a few hours and then try some sugar water. Just 3 sips at a time.

He’s out! I’ve popped his bill in some sugar water. Not sure he actually took any. Still laying down, lots of kicks and chirps. Hope he is okay by morning as I’m going to bed now

I feel like I’m being a real pain on here so I do apologise but I’m super worried about my littler hatcher. He is fluffing up in the incubator but is unable to hold his head or stand. His eyes look a bit dry too and he isn’t opening his feet pads.
