Khaki Campbell egg not hatching

[jennifermaywood]

Hi everyone, I have 1 khaki Campbell egg that I was trying to hatch. Up to this point all was going well. On day 28 (2 days ago) I candled the egg and didn't see any movement. I have been checking for movement once a day and still nothing. I can still see some veining and the air sac. No sign of liquid in the egg. I don't know how much longer to give it or how to check to see if the duckling is still alive. Any help would be appreciated .

Did it externally pip the shell?

No it did not.

No it did not.

Was it in the air cell meaning internally pipped? It might just be late if temp was off a bit.

I didn't see anything in the air cell. I do know I had trouble with the temp for a day and a half in the beginning.

Have you upped the humidity and lockdown the incubator? Do that and don't touch the egg again for two days.

Thank you I'll try that. What should I set the humidity to?

Well is it forced air or still air incubator?
