    Waddles won't waddle.

    I realize that I have too many drakes....I got them as a straight run from the Hatchery....I am in the process of trying to sell a few of my drakes. They are gorgeous birds. The pekins are VERY healthy and almost a butter color (as I have read this means they are healthy and have a good diet)...

    I do not believe he got into anything. His pondmates are all fine. Was going to try to take a picture of him in the tub tonight so y'all could see him but before I could get the camera out, he was flappin his wings and wanting out of the tub. He is a cutie but hope he gets back to himself...

    Just for clarification, this is the closest I could get to these babies.....I know I see one drake, can y'all tell about the other 3 since one is hiding it's butt from the camera?

    Waddles won't waddle.

    He is about 4 months old. So far I have just increased his rest and given him brewers yeast (which has the niacin and other vitamins in it), and have been giving him Vitamin E (as suggested by other forum peoples). He is "talking" more and a little more active but still has no balance and...

    HELP!!! Waddles won't waddle!

    Ok--here's the story of Waddles (Rouen drake). It started about a week ago, Waddles was slow to come to the area where we feed our ducks. Then one day he didn't come up at all. When we checked on him he swam to us and gave us a pitiful look. We fed him down by the pond for a couple days thinking...

    Waddles won't waddle.

    Me too. I have other ducks but this is the only one with a name. I don't want to put him down but.....if it is necessary I will. :( I just wish I knew what to do for him other than what I am now.

    That is what the Brewers yeast is for.....hoping it helps but I don't know. His legs are weaker but he is overall feistier

    Waddles won't waddle.

    Not a great picture but as you can see there is no scaling, no visable damage at all. He was using the feet to paddle but now isn't using them at all. BTW-he hatched around September 19......I believe.
