Help duck eggs on day 27 and not pipped internal

[hc8906]

Hi my runner duck eggs are on day 27 of incubation and they haven't pipped internally but they are still moving inside the egg. Is there anything I should do to help or not. Any help will be grateful. Many thanks

I just hatched out 5 of my own Indian runner duck eggs and it took them forever once they piped. They piped on Monday and finally hatched on Wednesday. Be patient they are worth the wait! I hadn't hatched duck eggs before and really didn't know what I was doing. Used my little brinsea that only holds 6 eggs. I did put a wet paper towel to add some more moisture on Tuesday and then worried that maybe I had added to much moisture, but they made it and are doing great.

Hi thanks for replying I just worried because they have pipped internally with it being day 27. they will hatch soon. We had three egg under our broody hen one egg got crushed a little and tye membrane went dry so had to help him/her out. The other two hatch on own.
