I think Muscovys should normally hatch on day 35, which would mean you'd want to go into lockdown on day 32. I've never hatched Muscovys before, but I have hatched other kinds of ducks. I noticed with them that I could see the ducklings wriggling around quite strongly like you describe well before they pipped internally. So yours may be on track to hatch out early, or they may not. If I were you I think I'd candle once a day and if anyone breaks through the membrane in the next two days put them into lockdown straight away. If the membrane stays intact just put them into lockdown on day 32 as you would do anyway. I'm not sure if you know, but when you stop turning them and go into lockdown, you need to raise your humidity up really high. With duck eggs, ideally about 80%.

A word of warning with ducklings: They take a LONG time to hatch. Like, seriously ages. Compared with chickens it's almost unbelievable how slow they are. Once they pip the shell they could easily just sit there doing nothing for another 36 or even 48 hours. So don't worry about them being stuck and DON'T rush in there to try and 'help' them hatch. As long as you've got your lockdown humidity up round about 80% they should be able to hatch fine on their own.

How many eggs have you got?
