The egg sack was full of veins and almost the size of the duckling himself a little smaller.

I'm guessing he quit maybe 3 or 4 days ago.
Green is "usually" a sign of some type of infection. There will be green-ish poop gooey looking stuff that is normal, but infection will usually show inside the yolk sac itself.

Ducks need more moisture than a chicken egg.

Duck eggs can have a slight green tint to the shell to start, then as the duck grows in egg the feathers inside the egg can darken the look of the egg.
