Hatching Khaki Campbells

there wasn't really any liquid at all, there was a little bit of goo around the yolk sac but that's really it. when i last candled the other ducklings they looked like there was a good bit of liquid still in there. my humidity is at 50% right now ranging from 47% to 60% at the highest but it keeps fluctuating so i can't really tell

YOu need to get that stabled..

i checked this morning and another one is in the air cell ( or trying to get to it) and this time i can hear it peeping! i cant quite see the bill but i can see where it is trying to break through to the air sac and i can hear its little chirps so thats a good sign i guess!!!

Yep good sign

how long do they typically have after internally pipping? i have another that pipped at 10pm last night and still hasnt made any progress and im getting worried

Since last night?? OK, make him a safe hole, he'll need one right now.

 

[Lacrystol]

Do you have a due date???

Can you send me a pic?

does he have a hole already? or are you pealing off shell? Sounds like your safe hole is to big...

 

[Lacrystol]

Safe holes are SMALL hole at the air cell, no bigger then the tip of a pen...

 

[Lacrystol]

to much shell off, WILL shrink wrap him...

A picture would definitely help. Less than 24 hours? I would disagree with going in this soon, but that's just me.

i think i made it a bit too big because i couldnt find his beak. i dont know what to do im panicking ebcause i cant find the beak but the duckling is peeping still while its in the shell
