Hi |(i'm a newbie) Im hatching first time ducks for pets in a Brinsea mini Automatic & today is day 29. out of the 7 shipped e-bay eggs 5 were fertile and one died between week one and two. So I have 4 left in the incubator. temps have been stable and i ran humidity at between 45- 55 during day 1-25 & increased to 90% on lockdown which has settled at just over 80% now. When I candled through the incubator on day 26 all four were moving like mad and the eggs have been rolling a bit. Yesterday day 28 - 3 are still active but one isn't moving at all. it looks as though all the active 3 have all internally pipped (triangular shadow moving in airsac) But I think I may have lost the fourth 
no sign of any external pips, but I occasionally hear a slight cheep so at least one has definately made it to internal pip. The airsacs on 3/4 are saddle bag shaped which i've read can cause issues for hatching. After being super calm and prepared for 28 days i'm suddenly panicking any helpul words or advice greatfully received.
