You said it was pipped at almost 9 last night, which means 24 hours isn't even close to up. Don't mess with them. You count the time from the external pip....not from the internal pip.

Ok, lol here's ANOTHER question! How long does it take for them to absorb the yolk?? And, how long until I need to help?? (•)>

I guess I'm not really sure how long it takes them to absorb the yolk....I'm sure it probably varies from duckling to duckling just like chick to chick. If temps and humidity have been good it should all be absorbed when they hatch.

I don't help them to hatch...usually there's a reason they can't get out on their own. Some people do help tho so that's going to have to be your call on what you decide to do. If you decide to help be sure you've given them enough time to do it on their own.....otherwise they may not have absorbed all the yolk and then you do more harm than good for sure.
