I ordered some duck eggs off of Etsy and their runner ducks I put them in the incubator on June 7th and today has been 33 days and nothing has hatched I talked to some people on the Facebook page that incubates ducks and one guy told me I need to poke a hole in the bottom of the duck egg that looks like the duck was developing but I don't know if I should do that or not this is my first time ever trying to incubate ducks he said my humidity was probably up too high and it made the duck shell hard and the duck isn't able to get out because he's suffocating but I don't know what I should do if I should just wait a couple more days to see if he can get out

Unlikely a humidity problem. Have you 'candled' the eggs?

That is a very small air cell for day 34
Is there movement ?
What was your humidity and heat at for incubating ? Did you use calibrated hygrometer and thermometer inside the bator ?
Is this the only egg you have ?
I had 4 the three stopped growing now I have this one I don't see any movement but I see it's outline and veins and we're at day 34 I have hygrometer inside I took out the other eggs maybe this one still has a chance
