Help, 7 out of 11 ancona duck eggs hatched on days 27 and 28. We're day 29 and last 4 no pips!

Sorry, this is my first time and it's been really hard figuring out the process of hatching these baby anconas! The title says it all really. Just wondering, is this normal? Should I be worried? They were all put in at the same time.

Thank you for your wisdom!

Not hearing chirping

I should add that they were pipped internally when I put them into lockdown on day 25

Should I candle them and see?

Yes, go ahead and candle them. It’s not uncommon for some to quit in the last few days.
