    Air pocket in duck egg day 20, humidity issues

It’s usually 60% and then will drop down to like 25-30%. Where I live is very dry so I have to add water a few times a day. I...

    First time hatching duck eggs. Worried :(

    I picked up 4 ducks eggs from a local farm on May 22, 2021. By day 7 I realized only one of them was actually fertile and the other 3 were not developing at all.

    My duck laid her first egg and i’m not sure what to do

    I woke up this morning and my duck had laid an egg! I took it inside because I didn’t want it to get damaged but I do want them to hatch so I don’t know what to do. Do I give them back to her or wait until she is ready to incubate them?

    Air sac on pointy end, pipped at wide end

    I have a duck egg that has pipped and is making a lot of knocking sounds and chirping, but the air sac is on the other end of the egg. Should I let it try to hatch? Will it need assistance? It sounds fine but it seems weird with the air sac being on the wrong end.
