@Lacrystol
I have noticed that one of them look like they have markings like a silkie! Yellow chest black everywhere else!

Haha I know right! I'm hoping to see 3 in the incubator in the morning! Hopefully! I think I'm going to take the hatched ones out in the morning too. Didn't wanna risk the other egg. But it should break out tomorow morning if not how long should I wait? Should I candle them when I take the babies out?

Please wait till they are dry before taking them out, they can actually help the other ducklings to hatch by making their lil peeping noises. Congrats on the 2 so far they are adorable.

Brown!!
Other 2 are black with white chests!

Is it still alive? If not, and you decide to remove the shell, do it very slowly and try to figure out what went wrong. Go slow and take pictures.
