Maybe you can help me too. My ducklings have been peeping inside for 3 days now. Should I poke a small hole into the egg

How long have they been in the incubator? never poke holes in them . what kind of duck eggs are they?

 

[roesree]

they are Muscovy ducks. I did make a hole ( nickel size). than put damp paper towel around it. The duck is peeping up a storm and still moving. There wasn't any blood. This duckling has been peeping for 3 days inside the shell.
I put the eggs in the incubator April 24th. The momma duck had laid 17 eggs and had been sitting on them. Neighbors dog killed the momma duck, so I brought all the eggs in to incubate. Only have 2 that have peeped 3 days ago.
