Hi, just had 1 of my runner ducks hatch been up and down all night and still missed it. Just wanted to know how long should I leave it in the incubator? I have 2 other pipped eggs no hole in them just tiny pips. It’s knocking them around is that ok?
I have just had another look the hole is a bit bigger and it looks like it’s yawning also peeing and pecking. Another egg pipped as well only a tiny pop at the mo. I just can’t wait to meet them. I don’t want to go to bed and miss anything
