This mornig the little fellow was very bad, it was on his back and couldn't stand. I went and bought Baytril 10%(that's what they've got). Unfortunatelly until I came back it had died.
I can get Baytril tomorrow, and no it is pooping, but the poop is little. It is like a dot coloured white and brown. And i saw it drinking some water.
How much Baytril should i give it?

On the picture are the older ducklings. They were in the bathroom for a day and they were cold there. I moved them in the bedroom where i sleep. The younger were kept only in the bedroom. They are in a crate and have a heat lamp. The temperature is about 25 - 26C° in the room and under the lamp...
They were four. One died yesterday. Today their bellies were swollen and one of them was very lethargic. I thought that they were constipated so today i gave them only cucumber and plenty of water. First the two pooped some very hard mass and then started pooping jelly-like substanse(which i...
