    My ducks are pipping tonight to. The first one started between 3:00 and 4:00 this afternoon. First one, two, three, four, and now I have six pips! How long before they hatch? Should I help them out of the shell? I don't know what to do, I've only read how to hatch, never done this before.

    My first attempt at hatching eggs will start tomorrow morning also. I spent a week of long evenings perfecting my homemade incubator and tonight it's finally stabilzed for temperature and humidity. I have 14 White Leghorn eggs that I saved over the past week from my 5 hens. Even if only 1...
