    Loosing weight, withdrawn, unsocial, wants to sleep all day, sticky eye lids, no interest in food

    Thankyou all for your kind words. The vet didnt recommend anything actually. He thought it was an infection at first. But then blood tests came back ok. He suggested an xray at $300 but said may not show anything. I vent checked her the first time this happened, but couldn't tell if it was...

    Crippled Duck

    Does your duckling have any injury on his back? I had a duckling with similar circumstances. Feet shrivelled up and cant walk. I did the pin prick test (carefully touch the ducklings feet in various spots and check for reaction) He jumped each time, but after 3 weeks still no sign of movement...
