You maybe about to pick some of the shell away if you can do it with out pulling on it. Those shells are so sharp I worry it may cut the yolk.

Is that the yolk? if it is gently put the duckling into a cup or small bowl lined with a dry soft washcloth or dry paper towels and leave it in the bator until absorbed this way it won't accidentally catch on something and rupture it. Put duckling in feet first careful not to touch the yolk...
