Duck abandoned two eggs!!!! Help!!!

[phoenixmix1]

My welsh harlquin has been sitting and around 31 days(Wednesday) they started hatching. Now this is already late for ducks but this morning she took all 11 of her ducklings off of the nest and earlier I went to throw out the left over eggs out. Then I saw that two had pipped. Ones beak is poking through. So I turned on the incubator and put them in. Now the one with its beak out is being loud but the other is only making knocking sounds. Egg 1 (loud one) has just started zipping and the membrane looks yellow and egg 2 has only pipped and the membrane looks white. I need some help if I need to help them hatch or not!!!

As long as they have a good pip hole for breathing I would give them time. You can help them out as long as there's no blood in the membrane. I always go slow, and give them a chance to get themselves out. You don't want to help too soon. Good luck.

If you feel like they are struggling you could help, them but follow your instinct!

If baby is zipping it should be okay
But if it stops and it’s been more then an hour of zipping you could try to help a little by pulling the zip shell off and let baby try yo push out on its own
Baby 2 should be okay
