WH hatchling w/white tipped bill?

[MyMaidenVoyageHatch]

He’s abt 6 hours post-hatch, incubated by his mama, had a long, drawn out, hatch process, required full assist with external pip, zip, & about 75% assist to fully hatch (Poor lil’ dude was exhausted).
What might this white on the tip of his bill be?
Mama is a WH. Baby daddy (lol) is either a WH or a Jumbo Pekin. This was Mama’s first year laying eggs.

Not a duck person but my chicks have a little white egg-tooth that falls off shortly after hatch. Maybe this is the same?

Yes, I was just about to say the same thing. That’s the baby’s egg tooth It’s what allows them to crack the shell and hatch. It will fall off in a few days.

Thanks to cartoons, I always thought baby birds pecked their way out of the egg. But, if you think about it, how would a duck peck? Instead, I later found out, they hammer their way out by throwing their head back and hitting that egg tooth on the shell. It usually wears down as they go. As others have said, it will go away.
