Duck pipped but maybe tried to zip idk if they need help

[Saaan13]

If she's chewing she's still absorbing. I would leave her alone for now. Is there any membrane exposed? Can you put coconut oil on exposed membrane?

i opened the hole up at the pipped side which is the air sac , I don’t see any exposed membrane but I’m not sure this is what she looks like now still

Can't really see much, but it's good that you can't see membrane.

If she gets quieter I would help. Definitely recommend watching a couple of hatch assist videos.

For ducks it could take up to 48 hours, however I would do a judgement call based on how vocal the baby is. Their yolk is much bigger than a chickens and takes longer to absorb.
