    Feather Sexing - advice please

    Please help me with this wee one

    So there is hope for him if I keep him warm and give him sugary water? He is slightly more active but still not standing or lifting his head unless I annoy him

    So UPDATE Yolk has detached partially absorbed, seems a little more lively, left in bator with some heat and he's had some sugar water , eyes are open and he's moving more but still weak. Hopefully he's just readying himself to get active

    He's been like this for a while now but will kick and scream when he's moved. I had to move the others away as I think it's their fault the yolk come out with the duck
