Hatching Duckling and Eggshell
A young duckling appears shortly after emerging from an egg, resting near a cracked shell segment. Hatching marks the beginning of life for waterfowl, who quickly learn to walk and follow their mother to nearby bodies of water.
How Ducklings Develop and Grow
Ducklings use a special temporary tooth on their bill, called an egg tooth, to break open the hard shell from the inside. Within twenty-four hours of hatching, young ducklings are already able to swim, dive, and find small food items independently.
