The duck has started pipping I believe last night or this morning. He has been trying to break through the membrane for a day. I incubated the egg on April 8th. The breed is one of adult ducks pictures.
There are orange/red spots appearing on the egg on the outside as well on the inside. The outside one is getting bigger as seen in the second picture. Is the duck ok? What does this mean? Do I need to help? Can I help? I really want it to make it.
the duck is moving still, and the egg is wobbling. This is the first egg I’ve got to develop. I tried once many years ago, but I think the egg was a dud or it was too cold during shipment. My son and I have been calling it Benny and talking to it. So, we accidentally sorta are attached already. I got the brooder all set up. I’m worried.

he didn’t make it. I’m assuming I may have either poked the yolk or I spooked him and he busted it somehow. He inhaled it, and I ended up peeling the shell so he could breathe and I tried so hard. I put coconut oil over the membrane that was exposed so it wouldn’t dry out. I thought I cleared out his airway enough as he finally started peeping, upped the humidity in the incubator, but he ended up passing away within 15 minutes. My heart hurts.
