Duck-Small pip on wrong end Help!

Looking good!!

It is still yawning/nibbling, doesn’t that mean it’s still absorbing the yolk? Do I just leave it alone until it quits?

How many hours has it been since it pipped and can you see any veins when you candle?

Yes..Definitely don't rush it..

When ready they begin to reality peep and struggle to get out. Possibly it will zip out on its own...

Getting close to 48 hours since it pipped. I just candled and can see veins so I’ll keep waiting, you can see its bill poking out!

You can slowly try and remove the tip off of the egg.

Sounds like a good plan!

It just unzipped by itself, super quick!! I put it back in the incubator, how long do I leave it there before putting it in the brooder??
