    Help!!!!! Day 28 - no internal pip

    The air cell is about 40% of the egg and dipped down on one side a bit - does that sound normal? I just put an additional dish of water and wet washcloth in there. I'm not measuring humidity - can there be too much humidity this late in the game? Yes, just one egg - which is why I'm so...

    Hi -- Thanks for any help. I'm incubating a duck egg and it's on day 28. The air cell size looks good. When I candle it, I see a tiny bit of movement. I did the float test and it was a low floater and moved a little bit. I'm concerned because there is no internal pip - on day 28 - and the...
