My ducks are on day 29, one has hatched, (theres three), but the other two show no sign of internal pipping!! Do i need to worry??

Have you candled them?

Have you candled them?

Yes, they seem to have a little movement but I’m worried.

One of them I have a clearer candling view. Not sure if that is good or bad! I’ve never hatched ducks before.

If they move, don’t worry.
If you can post pictures it would help.

At this point they should be internally piped, so you should see shadows in the air cell.

its very hard to tell with the candling. Is this good or bad?

Yes, please post some photos of you candling. Most of the egg should be dark and hard to see into with a big, clear air cell at one end.

Also try holding the eggs right up to your ear and tapping on the shell gently. Any tapping back or peeping is another indicator of an internal pip.

What breed of duck are these eggs from?

unfortunately, I cannot take pictures right now. One of them has a clear air cell, the other its hard to tell. Whenever I tapped on the eggs, there was no response.


Im unsure what type of ducks they are, but i know they aren’t muscovy because one hatched.

One may have internally pipped, because there are shadows in the air cell.
