    Duck not walking and pecked at

    She stood up today!!!! The past few days we’ve been going for visitation with the rest of the flock (supervised). Having our epson salt soak and drying off in the lawn up at the house (supervised). No egg has passed. So I have started to doubt that she’s egg bound. We’ve been getting b3 from...

    Hi everyone, New duck mom here 👋🏼. This duck (I assume female) was discovered this afternoon just laying around. I approached her and instead of standing she used her wings to try to get around. That was her state all day. I put her in the pool and she stood on both feet and moved around in...
