Please help, my 11 day old Muscovy duck eggs slipped and cracked while I was videotaping it’s movement. I’m devastated and started crying!
Is there ANY chance my baby will make it? Or is it doomed?
There’s nothing leaking out and didn’t crack the membrane.
Could someone PLEASE look?

Thank you so much!
Amy

When I dropped my candler on my egg I used candle wax to seal it
Unfortunately mine went another 10 days then passed
But I had read others made it to hatch doing this
I’m not sure if my crack is why mine died as it continued to grow and move through those 10 days
It could have been one of those things
Non perfumed wax
I just used z tea light and dropped it over the area

I put some paraffin was over the crack. It definitely didn’t penetrate the membrane at all and no leakage. I put 3 coats over the crack and moved it away from the others.
I’m going to be sitting on pins and needles every day. I had just finished making a video of her moving and taking to her. I know I sound like a big baby but I love my ducks very much and watching them develop with my little girl is such a joy.
All I can do now is pray 🙏
