Help! Duckling bleeding!

Could you try and get a picture without moving him? Does it look like its dried up?

If you zoom into the picture I posted, you can see it. It’s orange with white around it.

Is she moving around at all peeping?

Yup

 

[Miss Lydia]

That's good. As long as she doesn't get that yolk caught I'd say it's just a waiting game for now.

Is the yolk here in the pink markup? I hope @WVduckchick comes on soon. Is there any way you could slip a dry paper towel under her without disturbing anything?

 

[Miss Lydia]

I was looking at that it just is so hard to tell whats what. I agree something soft under her would probably make her more comfortable.

Yes, that’s the yolk. Will paper towel help her ?

 

[WVduckchick]

Darn, I’m still on mobile, and can’t tell from the pic.
A paper towel would probably stick to the yolk now, and a wet one isn’t good, because it will chill her.
maybe if you could wedge a paper towel around her, help her sit more upright. It seems to help encourage absorption (or maybe that in my head lol)
Im going to go look at the pic on a bigger screen.

My old eyes aren’t helping. That looks to me like the leftover gunk after hatch. I don’t see anything between the legs like I’d expect, but your judgment is best. As long as she’s alert, I believe she’ll hang in there.

 

[Miss Lydia]

I couldn't see anything either that was confusing me. I was thinking it was my eyes even with zoom.
