Thank you!!! Oooo I didn’t know there was a contest! Will be checking that out for sure x
 
Non-update.

Still only one egg has broke through the membrane and there’s no sign of external pipping.
Candled using my phone torch without lifting them and can see all of them are wiggling around so at least they’re alive!
 
Finally some progress!! 5 of the 6 ducklings have pipped through the membrane and are tapping away at the shell. Sounds like they’re chatting away to each other. I thought the one that had pipped internally yesterday would be closer to hatching than the others but it seems the others have more energy for hatching. Or maybe I just caught it resting.
The egg that hasn’t pipped yet is still active and trying!! Yeyyyy one step closer
