Is this an internal pip? I'm not sure? Someone please help ?

Slow down They need to stay in the egg as long as possible... remember you started the thread worried it was an early hatch. Don't rush it.

Fair guess it is better for them to stay in the egg longer and now that it's day 25 and going day 26 it's better timing for them even if they wanted to externally pip... they are still alive when I woke up this morning and more rocking and egg movement! I think they r getting there but checking them they seem to actually have a rhythm when breathing? Like it would move in an according rhythm... when I last candled any way. Clicking like mad it should be soon I think best thing right now is that's he's still alive! Thank you for slowing me I'm just so concerned for them! I will update if they show any signs of piping externally

Update evening of day 25 still no external pip... I hear loud chirping and tapping and see the egg rocking obviously! Should I be concerned? Been since Saturday which it internally pipped... do I help him? I made a safety hole but he hasn't pipped externally... although he seems to be trying... any feed back would be appreciated thabks

If his peeping sounds strong, I would give it another day. Here's a guide to follow if you decide to assist. Be sure to read it before doing anything.

No worries I worried bout nothing 3 ducklings have come out so fast I i hardley realised! I'm still waiting for the big egg and another egg which hasn't internal pipped yet either... day 27 so he's not late I guess

How are the ducklings? Did all of them hatch? Were they all early? They sure seemed to be in a hurry to greet the world.

Yessss all was good I guess I was too nervous all of them hatched! Out of the 6 I incubated 5 hatched! 1 was infertile! Here are photos of my little babies unsure what the yellow might be a colour of?
