Does this look like a duckling?

I have been debating on culling this egg for days now. Well today I candled and found this shadow mass at the bottom of the egg and what looks like a head.

Duckling or something alien?

Thanks for answering. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t just being hopeful and seeing things in the egg that weren’t there. It is hard for me to decide to cull an egg so if I can find a reason not to I will

Yes, and even if it doesn't turn out then at least you wanted to see! Good luck!

It quit there is something going on with the eggs from these parents they are fertile they just don’t make it long. We are doing extra vitamins right now to see if it helps.

It might help, I'm not sure but nutrition might have caused it.
Hope everything goes well after the vitamins!
