I have 2 ducks on the rollers and I went to candle one and saw a pip , what should I do , I want to increase humidity but there is also another egg in there which may not be ready for lockdown so what do I do ??

Hello! Increase humidity. It won't hurt the other egg. And you should take them off rollers.

Have done , the one that pipped last night has made no progress but I understand it takes 12-24 hours and even more to go from pip to zip so I’m just in suspense waiting for a little duckling to hatch

Great! Go with your gut! Yes, after 24-48 hours for ducks. Duck yolks are huge compared to chickens.

The waiting is unbearable! I don't know how much I slept when my chicks were hatching.
