The ugly ducking was a sygnet. A sygnet, or baby swan, is usually gray in color.
The mother duck suspected it to be a turkey egg.
No, neither a duckling or a gosling can be hatched by a mother duck or a mother goose. both gosling and duckling are hatched by hen. this is what i saw when i was a child 40 years ago in North China. is that the same in Europe and America?
No, both male and femaes are white. A grey swan is probably an adolescent who hasn't gotten his/hers adult feathers yet.
No. Each egg contains one duckling.
Yes, a duck egg in an incubator will get heavy while a duckling is growing inside the egg. This is because the duckling is gaining weight and size.
This is called candleing, you dont do this to see the duckling, you do this to measure the air space at the tip of the egg. the closer the egg gets to hatching, the bigger that air space should be.
No

It's called laying an egg. When the duckling emerges from the egg it's called hatching.
Yes, "The Ugly Duckling" is a folk tale written by Hans Christian Andersen. It tells the story of a duckling who is mocked for his appearance but eventually grows into a beautiful swan, teaching the lesson of acceptance and self-worth.
No, a baby duck egg that is cold is not alive. Because the little egg with the baby duckling inside needs heat and warmth to survive. They are just like humans without air they can't breathe and without warmth they could freeze to death and without food they could starve to death. So no if a little duckling egg is cold it is not alive.
The yolk of the egg is the "food" for the growing embryo. When the duckling emerges from the egg the yolk has been all used up.
