It totally amazes me how quickly they grow! And the littler personalities they all develop - you can tell them all apart just by that :) :) :)

Big brother splash! Wobbles having a cuddle with my other half

Sorry he died :( I'm prepared for the worst but not going to give up until his quality of life declines. Miss Lydia, we've aptly named him wobbles, and he's happily enjoying the brooder with squirt (one of the smaller other ducklings). The rest have adopted splash as their new big brother - he...

I'll read up and strap it tomorrow night. Might move him and the other small duckling into their own brooder. Splash our rescue duck was a little too big for the five day old ducklings, and too small for our big ducks (the drake picked on him) so he's been buddied up with our six week old mini...

Best of luck! I just had my first set of ducklings hatch - it's terrifying! Hang in there!!!!

he seemed better after his swim this morning. We're not going to quit on him until he quits at the moment he is just so full of life and so loving and trusting. The extensions look good. How many times a day should we do that? I was thinking of separating him apart from the siblings - to make...

The vet says to put him down. She tried to put it back but couldn't. He doesn't seem to be in pain and he's so full of life I don't want to end it. What else can I do??? He used it a bit swimming last night - but was exhausted and shaky afterward. I've got the yeast in water also.

The vet was booked out today, so will be heading there tomorrow instead. I'll try him out with some water tonight :)

I've sprinkled in the feed last night - will see how he is this morning. I can't straighten it fully out though, thinking I might take him to the vet this afternoon.

I can pull it about halfway back. The joint almost looks twisted or something I'll try to get a photo when I get him out again. I got the yeast - do I just add to water?

I'll get some Brewers yeast today. I got some photos but he's so wiggly! Super spunky little fellow. Doesn't seem to be in pain or anything.

Haha both of you are. This forum is an amazing resource to have. <3

I've never had chickens, but my mother in law (who's incubator we were using) may have fed them the same feed she does with her chicks instead of the duck starter. They will be on starter from tonight. Anything else I can add? From what I've read I can add niacin or yeast to the water? This...

Thanks for the advise. I'll post a new thread also. you're a hero Hennible. :)
