They should be removed from the incubator within 4 to 8 hours of hatching (when they are dry). They shouldn't be left in the incubator for more than 12 hours after hatching.
When you remove them from the incubator, they need to be placed in a dry brooder (you can make your own out of wood and cardboard, though a professional one is always better) with a heat lamp at 35 degrees C. The temperature of the lamp should be decreased by about 3 or 4 degrees a week.
If you only have one duckling, you would also need to give it some attention and love. Ducks are social creatures and will die of heartache if they are alone. A good way to provide social interaction with a lone duckling is to allow it to sleep under a towel on your lap or shoulder for a few minutes. If you are a male, you can grow a beard and allow the lone duckling to curl up underneath it - this sounds silly but what you are doing is replicating the effects of a duckling huddling under its mothers wings for warmth and protection.

Not normally. If you take a look in a nest where the eggs have hatched the shells are usually in a zillion pieces in the bottom where they have been crushed by the adult and chicks while the chicks dry before leaving the nest.
No, snails do not make a nest, they do stay on a nest, they do not hatch eggs. The eggs mature and hatch by themselves.
Ducks typically abandon their nest once the chicks have hatched. The mother duck leads her ducklings to water and teaches them how to swim and find food, with the nest no longer needed for raising the chicks.
No, they occasionally leave it to get water and/or food
A baby hummingbird typically stays in the nest for about 3 weeks after hatching before fledging and becoming independent. During this time, the parents feed and care for the chick until it is ready to leave the nest and explore on its own.
A baby robin will typically leave the nest after 14 to 16 days. A young robin will be cared for by the mother for up to one month.
Ducks typically lay around 7-15 eggs in a clutch, although this can vary depending on the species. After the ducklings hatch, they are known as ducklings and a mother duck can have as many ducklings as there were eggs in her nest.
