I think it was zipping just got stuck. And no bruising, just the shadow of the fan up top. But unfortunately I believe we lost this duck. Not quite sure what to do nowIt doesn't really look like it's zipping yet, to me- 18 hours isn't too long for the pipping stage.
Is that a bruise on the shell around the pip? It looks like the shell is darker there.
@New duck mommy 2021 is very knowledgeable with hatching, I'm sure she can give her opinion/advice if around
But for now I'd recommend sitting tight, watching and waiting- it's normal for ducklings to take their time!
