internal pip?

[quackkquack__]

Ah the poor stress peeping I'm not sure if I should make a little crack beside the hole to see if it'll try and zip itself. But I do want to make sure it's absorbed all the yolk before I assist if I have to since it keeps trying to push itself out of that tiny hole

Fingers crossed it zips on its own! I'll probably help in the morning if it's made no progress

I do have a call duck egg in the incubator which is 7 days behind the east indie (so its on day 25) and it started rocking today!! Though, it does have quite a big saddled air cell so I hope it makes it. I'm ready to assist if needed though!!

Baby is ready to come out!! I'll be going to bed soon so hopefully it'll pop out throughout the night.

I do have a question about the call duckling!! It has a big saddled air cell and its rocking like its ready to hatch soon but I checked it and it still has a good amount of the egg to fill. I'm unsure if its gonna make it but I would like some advice. Do I keep turning it so it'll fill up the rest of the egg?

Baby made no progress whatsoever and I kept having horrible nightmares!! I decided to help her out

I didn't see any yolk or veins left so I put her back in the incubator to warm up and do the final push on her own though I may have to help her because she just keeps pushing with her legs!!
My only concern is she's got a little bit of goo in her eye from the position she was in. She can open it wide but she's got it like squinted. Would water help flush it out? (If she sticks her whole head in the water)

It's got this on its tummy, does it just need to dry off? I had to put it in the brooder because it can't stand up right in the incubator since it's small (the incubator) and it's rolling the other egg all over the place!!

I decided to let baby stay in the incubator and silly me, it can stand up in it lol. I am a bit worried though, its only opening one foot and not the other but I think it'll be fine since I had a duckling do that once but she was fine once she got out of the incubator.

Alright so baby has dried off a bit and I went to check on it and it won't open its other eye anymore and it won't open its other foot still. Here's pictures, what can I do?

I'm too scared to put her in the brooder because I don't want her to fall over and not be able to get up. Oh, as for her tummy, it dried up.

I've got it in a cup right now
