Hi i have 5 duck eggs that were doing absolutely great at 25 days, put them into lock down on day 25... Its now day 29-30 looking through eggs with a torche, 3 haveno movement, however still have perfect air sacs but no internal pip at all. The other two - One you can see his beak hitting the egg, however the air sac does not look like a air sac anymore, but can defiantly see its beak hitting the egg, and coming back and forth. The other you can see its beak in the air sac moving around... im panicking do i make a hole for the one whos beak i can see tapping?? Why are they so late, im scared their trapped in the egg and cant break out, especially the one whos air sac looks different now!! Help???? My first time hatching.. there 100% pekin ducks
