Duckling born early with yolk sac not absorbed

[Miss Lydia]

Put the duckling in a cup or small bowl lined with a soft cloth not wet paper towels and leave in the bator hopefully as the day goes by the yolk will continue to absorb.

Thanks he is doing ok. I had to help because his feet were above his head and he still had no progress after 48 hours. but the little guy is chirping will keep updating as the day goes on Its the first time i hatched ducklings. I had two that hatched on their own and then one died because he was in a weird position and i dint know until it was to late. So i have one more in the incubator that still has a week or so left to hatch.
But as for this little guy I'm hoping he will be ok

I had him in a washcloth but wouldn't fit in the container i had to use. I used wet paper towels. should i switch him to a cloth or do u think the towels will be fine since he is already in them.

Wet paper towels can cause the duckling to chill any updates this afternoon?
