Duck eggs moving at day 20

[WelshHarlequin01]

Hi,
I’ve been incubating some Welsh Harlequin duck eggs for the past 20 days, and have noticed that they are rocking and moving a considerable amount (all 6 of them). I was wondering if this is normal? I have hatched Welsh Harlequins previously and have never noticed this happen before. Any advice would be appreciated ) .

Are you 100% sure those are duck eggs, it sounds very unusual that they would be moving at this stage

yes, I collected them from my ducks. I’ve hatched this breed before and this has not happened. I’ve been candling them, and everything seems ok, nothing abnormal. It’s just very strange so I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else??

Ive been having something similar happen with my khaki Campbell eggs its one week until their hatch day but it looks like one of the eggs is rockling slightly.

I locked mine down on day 24 and had a 100% hatch rate! They had all internally pipped so I thought I would just let them do their thing. I hope you have a success with your eggs!
