Hi! Currently I am actually hatching 6 duck eggs, and these bruises on them are driving me crazy! I don't know what to do and constantly worry. They are currently on lockdown and I hope they hatch. :bow
 
Ok, that pic is really small and my eyes aren't working so good right now. Do the eggs kinda look like they have become "bruised" in spots? If so, I have hatched ducks twice now, and have had it happen both times. The first time, the baby died in the shell, but the second time it hatched and is perfectly fine. I'm not sure what causes this to happen, but I have a guess from my own observations. I think it maybe is a kind of "bruise". Both times it happened on mine, I found blood on the inside of the shell in a corresponding location to the dark spot outside - Like they had nicked a vein when trying to position or something.

Anyway, don't give up on your little guy yet. It could still hatch out just fine and be perfectly healthy. Good luck!

Ok my update is those bruises were nothing and out of 12 11 eggs were hatched due to extreme weather only half survived but eggs were all fine and hatched safely.
