Help! I think duck eggs are pipping but I did not liner in bottom!!!

[leecey411]

I think my call duck eggs ape piping, sooner than expected. I took them out of the turner last night and forgot to put the shelf liner that I use to prevent splayed legs into the incubator. Is it too late now? I Know I should not open the bator. Do ducks get splayed legs??? Help!!

Doesn't the hardware cloth bottom provide enough traction?
