Something wrong with egg!!!!!!!

The only possibility I can see is that your incubator heats unevenly. Did you calibrate your thermometer. Even though you see 'movement', there is also the possibility that the eggs are non viable. @WVduckchick

What do you mean by “not viable”?

@WVduckchick any ideas?

My egg kinda looks stuck… like it’s not moving around much at all. I have an automatic turner in my incubator, so it shouldn’t be, but I don’t know. This is the worst/confusing hatch I’ve ever experienced. :/

the egg or the duckling inside the egg? The black area of the egg, looked at first to me like the duckling is stuck to the shell- but that might not be the case- just a thought.
Have you been verifying the eggs are turning? You should mark both sides of the egg, so you can make sure it is being turned

It looks like the duckling is stuck. And Yes, all the eggs are being turned.

I have 8 Indian Runners due to hatch Money, but a lot of them look so behind. I have one that is the most puzzling to me… all the eggs were set at the same time. Like, one of the eggs are piped already. View attachment 3047720View attachment 3047721

Do you have calibrated thermometers in your incubator?

No I don’t.

No I don’t.

That's your problem.
You have no idea if your incubator is heating evenly or not.
Next time don't set eggs until you learn your incubator.
Can you go buy some more thermometers today?
