Blood ring in most of the eggs

Blood rings just happen when the embryo starts, then stops developing. Some say heat spikes, some say too high humidity, shipped eggs are famous for early quitters.

I had several blood rings in some call duck eggs I set recently that had none of the things listed above, but they were from young layers, so I think that was the cause in my case.
 
These were not shipped and think I have another one that looks like may be forming blood ring now...last one was chicken at around 12 days this is a duck about 15 days. I'm leaving it in for few more days just in case since lil duck in there was moving few days ago and there was a bit of progressing development since last candling and slight decrease in air sac. Temp has been stable and good according to 2 thermometers one digital one regular and humidity was slightly low this morning but pretty stable otherwise. I added water to sponge and came back to normal this afternoon. Just trying to make sure I'm not doing something to cause this.
