Help! first time hatching!

Date sort Score sort
If you candle it does the shadowing part kind of disappear for a moment? Kind of like down back down into the black area?? If so then it's not fluids, it's your baby PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK, he's saying Oh no your not going to see me yet. So then let him do his thing,..

PERFECT THATS WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR, ok leave him alone let him do his thing. Wooooo hooooo your gonna have a baby....

If You really want to get him going, lol there's a YouTube video called baby ducks hatching, play that to the little guys and you'll see lots of wiggling. Lol it takes a couple of shots though. Lol

Mine will do this for a day or two before pipping internally. I call it "pushing on the membrane". This is also the time when I notice the eggs moving in the incubator.

yay :) and yes, that's what it seemed like to me too, like they're trying to break through the membrane
