Duck cant break air sac and died

[SofiaDaniela]

Hello Sofia, welcome to BYC! Can you post candling pictures of the remaining eggs? If the duckling has internally pipped, (broken the air cell) it should have enough air to last until it externally pips (breaks the outer shell), however sometimes(with muscovies especially) the duckling doesn't have enough air.

If the duckling internally pips, and then 24 hours pass without it managing to externally pip, you may need to make a 'safety hole) in the top of the egg.

Sorry if I missed it, but how long have the remaining eggs been incubated for.

Good luck with your eggs, I hope you manage to hatch some ducklings

Hello, from what I saw, it did not break the air chamber, I've seen it move trying to break it but never did. These are the photos of the other three eggs I have, but they take less time

How long have those eggs been heated?

I’m sorry you lost the first one, but it is not advisable to get the eggs wet. They need quite a bit of humidity for the last 3 days, but do not wet the shell.

Thanks for the warning, I did not know that. these eggs have at least two weeks, I'm not 100% sure because I found them after a few days. So what is the best way to keep them moist?

the bucket with water you only have to put it when it is about to hatch? I do not have a meter, but I plan to buy one since I have no other way to measure humidity and that is what worries me

The box is closed only half

Is the mother Duck Broody?..Would be easier if she could hatch the eggs.
