    6 Indian Runner Duck Eggs in Janoel 12 - Day 28 and no Pips

    Update: The duckling that pipped externally over 36 hours ago, I opened up this afternoon, to find that the membrane was thick, white and rubbery like a hard-boiled egg's membrane, and the duckling was shrink-wrapped right around its neck. So I had no choice but to release half of the duckling...

    Hands on hatching and help

    I need some hands on help as I think I need to assist my Indian Runner duck eggs. We are on day 30, and only 2 have externally pipped, one 48 hours ago and the other this morning. The others (apart from one) have internally pipped and all had safety holes added 17 hours ago. My friend tells me...

The first one externally pipped about 2.5 days ago and no progress still. I hear peeping but not sure from which egg. All were...

    6 Indian Runner Duck Eggs in Janoel 12 - Day 28 and no Pips

    Mine were peeping this afternoon, but had stopped tonight, so just added safety holes to all but one that I don't think has internally pipped and the one that's externally pipped. Only way we could do it in the end was with an actual drill and a tiny drill bit - a 1mm hole - hope the noise...

    6 Indian Runner Duck Eggs in Janoel 12 - Day 28 and no Pips

    Thank you - I have one that has externally pipped. I have candled them as you suggest already and there was plenty of movement and peeping - but it's now been well over 24 hours and no external pipping from any of the others, so I'm a bit concerned and wondering if I should make a safety hole -...

    6 Indian Runner Duck Eggs in Janoel 12 - Day 28 and no Pips

    Hi there, I am on Day 28 with my 6 eggs, and see and hear nothing yet. We miscalculated by a day so the eggs went into lockdown a day later than they should have (Day 26) - so we didn't candle them as I didn't want to disturb them. Prior to that, all were moving and seemed to be growing fine on...
