    Warm water therapy is so good for them even if just 5 mins let them swim around with supervision then pat dry and right back under heat. They will love it.The water just deep enough they can swim and still stand up if they want. I forgot to mention the water helps to take pressure off the legs...

    I can’t think of anything other than niacin deficiency. Was she like this when you brought her home? I would def keep up with what you’re doing. Are you also giving warm water therapy?

    Have you watched them eat the pellets okay? I usually don't start my ducklings on pellets that young.This add on is a perfect way to administer liquid meds I bought it from Chris Squirrels which is closed now but there should be other places that sell them. She definitely needs the liquid B...
