Hello all. I hatch call ducklings frequently. I am having an issue with my current assist. This is a call duckling. It internally pipped 36 hours ago and I gave it a safety hole around 12 hours ago. Yesterday night I started to remove the air cell around the safety hole. It’s not ready to come out yet as I can still see unabsorbed yolk. I have left it be to absorb. I notice that the poor little baby’s eye is very cloudy. I put a little bit of water on its eye and I’ll put terrimycin on it once the baby is hatched. This little babe is also very sticky with an amber fluid. I have seen this in one of my other ducklings but not to this extent. Is there anything else I can do in the meantime? It’s eye just looks very red, cloudy, and irritated, whereas it was not yesterday. I did take a q tip with warm water and try to get some of the sticky goo off.
