I’ll go in there today, the ladies know me by name and are really nice so I’ll see what I can do. I gave him a stuffed animal and a little mirror I used to keep with a cockatiel lol. He still seems super healthy. The remaining one was always a lot bigger then the other 3 were, could they have...

Me too. Now I’m left with just the one. Not sure what to do here, he still seems fine. I may watch him for a few days to make sure he isn’t sick and possibly get a few more. Unsure.

Okay 😓 I haven’t touched them besides cleaning the bowls out for the night and that’s when I noticed. Hoping for the best in the morning.. thank you all again. I’ll update in the morning.

Thank you! I got some and added to to their food. The one was doing better until about an hour ago. I checked in on them, they were sleeping cuddled up, the one got up and ran to the other side and the weaker one stayed. Doesn’t want to stand, barely walks. Is he deteriorating again, or could...

Sorry. To answer, no, there seems to be no other sign of respiratory problems, but then again I’m not too sure what to looks for. His breathing seems the same as the other one, his peeps are a little quieter but I don’t notice much.

The eye cleared up pretty well. The duckling I became concerned about was doing a whole lot better until about an hour ago. He was pooping fine, eating, drinking and walking with no issues. I was actually able to breathe. Fast forward to now, he won’t walk again… I’m down to only 2 out of the 4...

Here’s a photo of set up and duckling I’m now concerned about. The other one is a little bigger then this guy, very vocal and moves around a lot. This guy though, not so much. I mixed niacin powder with water and carefully gave it some as the article above instructed. It had 0 interest in...

Ok. How much do I use for 2 ducklings. And do I mix it with their food?

Ok. Anywhere I can buy that in stores? Could I just buy niacin tablets from the store and take the power out until I can order it?

I just got back from the store and the ducking is in critical condition. Can’thold it’s head up and is twitchy. I hate this. What can I do?

Update- there’s only one vet an hour away that will see them. They want a 200$ initial fee for “walk in”. If it was you guys would you just bite the bullet and take them or try puppy pads and the nutritional flakes first and see how that goes?

Absolutely. I’ll try whatever I need to at the time. I’ve read so many mixed things on bedding 😵‍💫

Thank you! Yes I’m headed to pick up some nutritional yeast flakes until brewers yeast can come in the mail. Once the vet clinic is open I’m going to call and see if they’ll see them today..🤞 I appreciate all your advice! I wondered about a respiratory issue from the place I got them from...
