New born baby duck help

Just make sure because you don't want to introduce bacteria or you'll have infection.

She is all closed up now but she is still tired not very active is that ok ??

It may take her a day or two to get her legs under her. I let my Muscovy hatch if we do any hatching but from all I have read from others that assisted hatches take longer to recover. So just let her rest.

She is eating and drinking and resting a lot so I think she will be ok

Your duckling sounds perfectly normal. With assisted hatches I do not count the time they hatched from the moment they were out of the shell, but rather once their yolk has fully finished absorbed. Once their yolk has completely absorbed then it is 3-4 hours minimum usually before they start to find their feet and often it is much longer because they did not gain the muscle strength they normally would from hatching on their own. I don't worry unless there are issues after it's been at least 24 after they have fully hatched and finished absorbing their yolk.
