day 30 and ducks still didn’t hatch!

Hi, i’m a first time hatcher. I’ve recently started incubating duck eggs and only one hatched in day 28. I have 5 eggs in all. Another one looks like the hard shell chipped off already but the thin part wasn’t broken through. Should I help it?

Are they making any noise? Can you candle them and see movement?

they are making noise! i slowly peeled away a small part of the thin layer, will that do any harm?

I don’t think so. Can you post pictures?
