    Opinions needed....

    I am still caring for the duckling I have that has the shriveled up feet. I've been feeding chick starter with Brewers yeast mixed in and also giving it poly vi sol. His feet are getting worse and it's getting harder and harder for it to get around I've noticed. I found a vet that can see it but...

    My baby ducks are getting to big for the storage tote that they are in. I'm noticing that they don't have much room to walk around in. The oldest duck is about 6 weeks old and the youngest is about 4 weeks old. It's still to cold here in Kentucky to put them outside.

    Just got home from work! His feathers are looking a lot better however I am noticing the one other duck with him is showing the same signs so I started it on the poly vi sol. The other one is still not using its feet but he seems to be getting around ok.
