It is not my nature to argue the issue here, but let us look at the context of part of what you quoted from Dave...Susceptible does not indicate every duck will have these problems. As I recall saying in another post, I have them but do not really breed them. They are far too busy free ranging...
That is awesome!!!! It sounds like we are off to a good start. You just have a special baby that needs a little extra TLC to get going. Are you close to any Tractor supply stores? They have packets of Sav-a-Chick vitamins and electrolytes and probiotic. A three pack of each runs about...
