Hi,

Can you see it breathing? Also if you cheep at it do you get any response? I hatched 4 chicks last month and hatched 2 ducklings today all of them were very tired after their hatch. One of our ducklings took about 36 hours to get half out, then lay there for about another 2 hours before finally pushing out as it was so tired. Ensure the humidity is high and the temperature is correct and that it's head is fully out and nothing could be stopping it breathing and fingers crossed it's just tired as a long hatch is hard in them!

Good luck!
