Please I need advice. My muscovy eggs were supposed to hatch today

@Miss Lydia
I just cant wait to see those little ducklings for the first time!!

Oh and 2 more of my hens just went broody yesterday! One is my blind girl. She's trying. She keeps kicking out all the eggs from underneath her but is still doing the body roll, like she's turning eggs, with nothing underneath her.

@Miss Lydia

This is the best pic I could get of the eggs
You can see its little beak at the top

Internal pip for sure now it’s a waiting game!! Great pics! And sounds like your going to have ducklings all over the place!

 

[Aunt Angus]

This is getting exciting!

Will she stay on the nest while they are breaking through or will she get off?

@Miss Lydia OMG right!!! Miss Alice is on 18, Momma Duck just started full broody sitting on about 20 2 days ago, and I got about 20 more!!!!

 

[Miss Lydia]

Wow that’s a lot of ducklings!! Mine stick to the nest while hatch is going on. They may stand up over the eggs but they don’t usually leave.

Congratulations on the ducklings heading your way, I've only hatched using a incubator, I know it made me a nervous wreck the first time, I can imagine how bad I'd be with a hen, I'd be out there every 5 minutes checking on her..lol.. like the others have said, remain calm and be patient, they'll get here when they are ready to get here..

I'm being as calm as I can!!! I go look in there about every hour or so poke my head in there a few times to see if I can hear anything!

, I can relate, I was the same way when it was time for my chicks to start hatching, when they didn't start on the morning of the "hatch" date, I started worrying, then I had one that had pipped and was taking forever it seemed to get out.. I had to keep reminding myself that helping could cause more trouble than it solved. I'd read that it could take 24 hours or more for one to make it out. I think this is my 6th batch/hatch. 1st was 6 out of 6, the next 5 were 5 out of 6 and tonight is candle night (day 7) for this last one..
