Peeping eggs

[Yaypekinducks]

The duck eggs I'm incubating started peeping yesterday morning. When should I expect them to break through the egg shell?

Should they have done this already? I think they internally pipped yesterday because of the peeping, and I heard that they should be externally pipped within 24 hours, which passed by already.

I believe it is quite common for the "zipping" part of the hatch to take a couple of days. They are almost here! How exciting!

Ducks take a long time. In 24 more hours probably. After internal pip it can be up to 48 hours until external pip. Give them lots of time. Ducks are very slow hatchers.
