I agree with Kroelies I haven't done hatching myself leave that up to the ducks but I have seen this before. Lets hope someone with hatching experience will come on soon.That looks really bad, I don't know what you should do and the forum is pretty quiet at this timeI wouldn't give up yet if the little one is hanging on, try to keep her in a place that's clean and soft so the sack doesn't rupture. Or keep her in the incubator and take out the egg shells. What breed are the parents?
@Amiga @Miss Lydia @Lacrystol ???
For now just let it rest and if you have other ducklings in the bator your going to have to keep them away from this lil one.I know! Im in Australia, and the time difference between here and America sucks! its still in the incubator and i have propped it up in some tissues so it cant damage the head blob. The potential parents are all mixed breed ducks, but none of them are related, so inbreeding defects arent an issue. Im at such a loss as to what to do, because I cant find any information on the internet as to what this could be!!!

is this duck a crested??[COLOR=1D2129]Hi guys, emergency help needed and graphic pictures ahead. I have had a duckling just hatch that has what appears to be a protruding fluid filled sack out the back of its head. Its still alive, what is going on and what can I do to help it. Or should I just put it out of its misery. Help please![/COLOR] [COLOR=1D2129]![/COLOR]
Not a chance! All the parents are mixed breed ducks with no history of cresting. And they are all unrelated, so there in no inbreeding.is this duck a crested??
