when should i give up and turn the bator off and throw eggs out?

Well one way I can tell is everything is absorbed, and the membrane is snugged on the baby. I call them baby's because I'm doing all the work like a mom.. ha ha ha The membrane is usually a white kind of foggy color, meaning no blood, no liquids, no veins just the baby..

Are you on day 32? usually a duck egg takes 25 to 27 days I believe...

do i just leave the membrane intact? what if it has pipped internally then what do i do after peeling some of the shell back?

Oh man, Does the membrane look like it's stuck on him? or does he look more like dried up inside?
