In the Brooder
One of my 12 duck eggs externally pipped yesterday 5/25/23 @ around 145 pm , the pip is towards the bottom on blunt end but it’s away from air sac.. since this time the duck has been active and made a complete hole through the membrane and I can see what appears to be it’s beak and to me the beak looks like it’s upside down .. it’s still moving it’s bill/beak often and is peeping just as often as the rest that have all externally pipped within the air sacs , just this one has pipped toward bottom and away from sac - it’s now 4pm on 5/6/23 which is right about at 26 hours since it externally pipped away from sac and towards the bottom .. do I need to leave it be since it seems to be progressing somewhat or do I need to assist ? Thanks to all and I am new to this site - but have read over the guide to assisting with hatches - I just didn’t see anything about externally pipping towards bottom as well as away from sac with whaat appears to be beak upside down
