Help! first time hatching!

#10 is hatched. Still in bator—but, his head is still in the shell. It go out, then somehow turned around and now has its head in shell and can't back up.
#11 has made its pip hole bigger, but hasn't tried zipping yet.
#12 hasn't even pipped to my knowledge
Silkie egg #1 pipped last night, and it's hole is slightly larger now, but hasn't tried coming out. I can't see it very well, so it may be dead. *sniff sniff*
LF egg #4 hasn't pipped to my knowledge, neither has #5. Crossing my fingers they're still alive.
 
I can see into the silkie egg. It isn't moving that j could tell. Is it dead? The ducks really crawled over that egg in particular, so would that be the cause? I'll give it another day before removing it and examining it.
 
Just got home. Put the 6 ducks and one chick in brooder with the others.
There are 3 duck eggs left, and 3 chicken eggs. One chicken egg I don't know if it has even pipped yet. The silkie chicken egg has been pipped since yesterday. They really walked on it today. Hope it's fine.
I know one of the duck eggs is alive. It was rocking it's egg a bit. The others are pipped but they haven't tried zipping yet. Crossing my fingers.


Pipped or peeped???
 
Ok they either pipped or peeped. Pipped happens internally. And peeped happens externally. It's confusing when when I see they have pipped because I don't know if you mean internally pipped or externally peeping.
