Hello from Missouri!!

[wendy123]

I have started incubating and am nervous. I started out small with 4 duck eggs. Im on day 30 and no pipp, I can hear the duckling chirp and sounds as if it is pecking, but no pipp. Shall I just wait? This is nerve wrecking. Any thoughts?

They will pip if they are cherping. Good luck

Thank you!!

Really? I need reassurance. I read that hatch day is 28 for ducks, I'm on day 30. Should I be worried?

Somtimes you can make duck noises to encourage them along.

Omg its nice to know I'm not weird. I have been sitting by the incubator chirping every hour. Lol

Good luck and happy hatching!

If your temps in the incubator were lower than usual, at some point, this can slow hatching. You could also express concerns on the "duck thread." Put that in the search box and it will come up.

Should I turn the temp up?
