Early pips

[happychickies101]

Hello! We have duck eggs and we just put them into lockdown yesterday. I’ve been keeping an eye on them and they are piping more and more every 2 hours. We are currently on day 26 of 28. Is it normal they are this early?

I dont hatch ducks but with chickens, if the temp in the bator was a little high, the chicks hatch earlier than expected. If they are hatching and happy, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
