Hey there. I wanted to share my candling pictures and incubation progress with you.
I bought 14 Duck Eggs (Indian Runners) and they were shipped to me. Luckily just 4 had bad air cells and none had Saddle Air Cells. I hate that kind a lot !

Hi all! I have a HUGE problem.
I ordered 36 Quail eggs from EBAY! They arrived all ok but 3. They were cracked so I tossed them. I incubated the eggs about 22 days ago (They are Coturnix Quails) about 18 eggs were not fertile (I candled them at day 10). and the rest had dark massed inside...

If he is not even a day old I think its normal..
my duckling stayed on the ground for 2 full days untill it started to move more..
How is the 'yolk' now? It should get black and dry...
I am very happy to hear he is alive!
Buy something to disinfect the wound. I got OCTENISEPT that is for animals too and it does not hurt it like other disinfectant .Just ask at your pharmacy !
It will get hard and will fall off in some days.
Is it weak? If yes, give him some water and sugar ...
Thank you for your reply!
My duckie is doing well so far. Eats, poops, cheeps and sleeps !
For the water I used a plastic box with the lid on and i cut a hole in it.. i added some marbles just to be sure! I change the water every 6 hours or so.. just to be super sure its clean!
I use Towels...
