    newly hatched duckling questions

    Hi again everyone Just thought I’d check in to give an update. The duck that had issues with its legs, Dot, is walking normally now. Both ducks have grown so much so fast but Sonny is definitely much bigger which makes me think they might me different breeds and/or genders. I do have one...

    Also Dot seems to have more strength in her legs this morning which is encouraging. :) I’ve uploaded some photos of them having breakfast just now. I blended up some spinach for them too as that was recommended also.

    Thanks so much for the tips. We live on a small island so unfortunately there aren’t many farms and no tractor supplies anywhere. Good advice about human liquid b complex - the pharmacies here I went to were sold out but I have a few lore to try today and a health food store too so fingers...

    Thank you! The little one seems to be trying to stand now a bit which is great although she still lies down after a big effort. Again eating and drinking is fine.

    Thanks for all the response! I’m trying to send a video but it won’t send. It keeps hopping to get to food. Think one side is worse than the other. The duck doesn’t seem to be uncomfortable but it’s hard to tell! I hope it’s not in pain. I’m is managing to get to food and water and I keep...
