Help! I don't know if my duck egg already had an internal pip

[in0d]

Hi, today in the morning I saw my egg did some wiggling inside the shell. I don't know which day the egg is and I've been candling it with a cellphone flashlight hopefully not that much. I don't know if it already pip or what should I do. It's been more than 12 hours and about an hour ago I checked it again with my cellphone flashlight and it wasn't moving, not even looking like it was breathing. What should I do? Please help, I'm suspecting it might died.

It could be resting. It takes a lot of energy to hatch. When checking did you see any signs of the bill at the air cell poking through. I don’t know much about ducks but I am sure they hatch similar to chickens.

Just leave it. I'm thinking it's resting. It can take over two days to hatch Duck eggs. First they internally pip. 12 hours or more. Then externally pip twelve hours or more and then they begin to zip once they absorb the yolk.
Ducks are slow hatchers..

Yep ducks are slow. Give it some time. Good luck!

The green part was moving, at times like a wiggle then like a breath.

Lockdown and don't touch anymore. They need the humidity to get hatching..
