Help! first time hatching!

I am worried that the black area is the body and that it possibly does so any answer would be great!!! I am patient but this is unbearable!!! It is taking forever!
 
Look at what I just found shivering in the yard all by itself. Stuck it under my Moderm Game Bantam that has one chick egg that pipped last night.

Haha, ok I just want to be sure if they are still alive and developing! One other question, when the ducklings start to hatch should I close the male off at the top (the nest is under the platform and it is the biggest area. I am thinking about closing off the male at the top so he doesnt kill them after hatching. Is that a good idea to be "Better safe than sorry" situations"?
 
Found the nest... it's a Muscovy mama, but that is not a Muscovy duckling! Looks like my Peking has been with the wrong group, lol.

Sorry I can't answer that one. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will offer some advice.
 
Ok because I am worried that my male duck will kill them after hatching
 
How long does it take to hatch and so duckings die in the process?
