Ok on the 28th day of duck hatching do the baby ducks move in the egg?

Question

Because a friend of mines mom told me that on the day before hatching the baby duck doesnt move because it is saving it energy. Is this Correct and please explain?

Answer 1

Incorrect....

The egg can actually move 6 days befor it hatches. SOmetimes 8. It all depends on the egg. Most move 3-8 days befor hatch. They move slightly. And more 3 days befor hatch to get to hatching position. And to pip through the egg. They can pip through the egg on hatching day also 3 days befor hatch.

They do rest frequently butr then go at it to pip and to get in th hatching position.

I own many ducks and have hatched many as well.
