Help!

[Lycanox]

I have two eggs that are pipping at 24 days old, they have cracked the shell, temp at 99.5 and humidty 75%, one of the eggs are twins, there are two ducks in one egg, what do I do? im not worried about the other egg but I've put them in lockdown and they are peeping and wiggling like crazy.

No way! I’m gonna tag someone because they just recently tried to hatch a twin duck egg! Are both twins alive? That’s really early…what breed are they?

@Chris93, might you be able to help? Also, @New duck mommy 2021, @Miss Lydia?

I can't help but I did contact @New duck mommy 2021 hopefully she can help.

I don't hatch I let my Muscovy do the work.

What breed?

Pekin

 

[Lycanox]

also both appear to be alive but its very hard to tell

 

[Miss Lydia]

Day 24 is pretty early for Pekins I was thinking they maybe Calls. Since they have cracked the shell I don't think you should do anything sounds like progress is being made. Hopefully, soon some one experienced will be here to give advise.

they have external pip ? Check second end for any bruising
If you see bruising make a safety hole
If not then don’t

 

[Oob Child]

I hope they make it, it's really rare for twins to survive! You might only be able to get one to survive though. Update us soon

I found bruising on the non-twin and gave him a hole, he has fully internally pipped and is quite loud, no progress after the external pip on the twins (bruising right next to hole)

Try and make sure the incubator is shut as much as possible (with the exception of pulling an egg out to assist of course) to prevent shrink wrapping now that one has externally pipped.
If you don't see any more progress from the one with the bruise in another 12-24 hours either create another safety hole that's more on top of the bruise or start to make the current hole slightly bigger, about a cm in diameter to help him progress, and just keep an eye on him.
