Good old Call Duck thread

So the second finally poked her head out from behind her leg.
Yeah. That was the issue with them turns out...
She's in tea prison right now. Tiny little Yolk sac nearly drawn in but not quite. I take no chances.

Any clue why the area around the umbilical is still a bit puffy and yellow?

It will go down soon. It's just where the yolk went inside its belly.. for lack of a better way of putting it. They sometimes have that belly bulge for the first several hours. Nothing to worry about as long as it's on something soft and clean.

I was worried when I seen mine too. But it was fine.

Nice. One other finally pushed its little head free and is waiting my final ok. Earl Grey is curled up in his cup drying off, another is nearly free, and the last one is still working things out in life. After those two are cupped, then I'll feel more at ease. No updates on the others. But hatching day is going surprisingly well *KNOCKS ON WOOD*

Final update of the night:
All 4 are out (Though I'm keeping the last one in the hatcher overnight)
The first is dried off and content as a clam.
Akizuki is happily stupid, nibbing at the others and oblivious to the world
Yuudachi is so chill I want to find call duck sized sunglasses for her to wear.
I'll call the other cup chick Akagi I think.
No other reports for the others.
8 have externally pipped but haven't progressed.
1 has internally pipped but doesn't seem to be in a rush.
And the last one hasn't even internally pipped yet. I'm not convinced he's not upside down. Which will be...
Troublesome...

Congratulations on 4 healthy babies!
