HELP! Twin duck egg no pip day 28

[Mikayla1234]

I had an incubator like that when I first started hatching. It was very, very inconsistent! Usually ran cooler than the set temperature, so I would wager that your duckling might just be a little delayed… a day or two.
You’ve been getting good advice all around, so continued good luck!!

Thank you for the info. YES! This incubator seems to change temp every now and then, but I have been checking it so it should all be good.

I just candled to check for internal pips, still none… but then I decided to candle at the pointy side of the egg, and there was lots of movement, but I might of saw a beak! I am definitely NOT 100% sure because it might of been a foot or something. But I saw something pushing against a sac?

Just make sure when you candle you aren't picking up or turning the egg at all.
The air cell will be at the fat end. Usually the feet and yolk sac are toward the pointy end.

The egg should be laying still with the lowest side of the dip in the air cell upward.
Like this:

Once it internally pips, the air cell will draw down like this:

yeah, when I candled the other side I was really careful and turned my hand and not the egg.
Thanks for letting me know and I hope that is the feet at the pointy end.
Thank you

Once I do lockdown I don’t pick the egg up to candle for pips
You should be able to set the light to the air cell without moving the egg
That doesn’t look like bruising
Just dirt
I can’t find the picture I had but mine was darker in colour
If you can see in the pointy end and room between air cell and baby at other end I’m not thinking it’s ready and not twins
I couldn’t see a thing at pointy end with two babies in my egg
It was so dark and full

I found it
So when the first bruise happened I made the hole in the middle
24 hours later the second bruise appeared I circled where the darker area was and there is where I made my second hole a little bigger finding the beak
This baby took 52 hours from first hole to hatch and still had a little yolk that took her another 2 hours to absorb
@WVduckchick helped me hatch this little one
Without her help I would have lost her
She will be 1 years old Jan 10th

I’m so excited, the egg is rocking and turning, hopefully soon!

Great! Don't candle it for a day or two.
