Advice/Encouragement-hatching Pekin ducks

[MissD]

hello all. I am a 4th grade teacher and hatch call ducklings with my students every year but this year I switched to Pekins. It is day 27 and yesterday on day 26 3 were rocking and 2 had started to pip, no holes but definite cracking. They have done nothing at all today. Should I worry?

I don't know, but we have some great hatchers on the forum. Can you edit the title to mention hatching? That might catch someone's eye sooner.

Also there is a thread When to Worry? https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/861442/when-to-help-when-to-worry/310

You might find someone there you can PM.

Thanks I edited it. I did just see one rocking but it is not either of the 2 who started to pip yesterday...still no movement or change from them.

Lacrystol has been very helpful with hatching concerns. There are other hatchers, too, perhaps carcar80, subhanalah, Marty1876….and there is the sticky on hatching waterfowl.
