pip at the top of duck egg?

[Holonomic]

Hi guys, quick question.

Hatch day is tomorrow for 5 miniature appleyard eggs

2 are externally piped, another 2 internally (may give them safety holes if no external pip is seen by tomorrow) the 5th is yet to pip internally.

I candled all yesterday and they looked fine, however one of the eggs (which has an external pip) seems to have the air pocket running all the way down to the 'top' of the egg, this is where the pip is.


Should I be concerned with this or just let it hatch naturally? Anything that I should be aware of?

Can you post a pic? I can't quite picture what you mean.

Hi, unfortunately I fell a sleep last night and woke up to it being pip externally today.

3 are hatched, the 1 I was questioning about is the one with the external pip shown above.
The last one is yet to show any signs of internal pipping that I can see... which does concern me.

The three which have hatched look healthy and well, I plan on keeping them in the incubator until the others have hatched... is this ok? I read they are fine in the incubator for 48 hours?
