This is my family's first hatch including family visiting. 3 pips out of 5 come on duckies

How long from first pip to when they hatch? Time frame?

 

[sheilawagner]

I think the time frame is anywhere from 1 hour to 24 hours, from pip to out completely. I just got my 1st pip and can't see anything from the rest. So anxious, cos its been 9 hours since it pipped. I can see movement within the shell, so I know its still alive.. oh chickie, come out already.

with ducks it can take up to two days from pip to complete hatch. From what I've been told... One of them is hatching out of the pointy end of the egg..think he's a lil confuse

Can't tell if the other 2 have piped yet..if they have its on the bottom where I can't see.

I have 3 out and 7 pipped. My little pips aren't making much progress. I had to take out the 3 babies...this hatch is a little draggy and the bator is cram packed. But...my humidity went right back up so hopefully it didn't hurt it too much. I'll be officially on day 21 in 3 or 4 more hours.

Where are the pictures? I want pictures! I don't go in to lock down until Sat being my shipped eggs arrived late. Have to live thru you guys for the time being.

Fuzzy butt pics in the morning... Promise

We have 11 out. 3 are stalled zipping. They have been that way since yesterday afternoon. I don't know if I should intervene.? I did open the bator to get 10 rowdys out, but I did it in a steamy bathroom and only lost a few % of humidity. Also one did hatch out since then. Worried.
