    Single orphan chick - how to raise? :(

    If your four-week old chicks are in a brooder (and if that brooder is large enough), maybe you could divide the brooder using chicken wire, etc. so that the lone chick could be on one side and still be able to see and hear the older chicks on the other side.

    My ducks wing got ripped off!!

    I'm not as experienced as the others on here, but cornstarch should help slow/stop the bleeding if it is still needed. I had to use it in the past when a fox attacked one of our chickens, and she made it. Hope this helps!

    Listless duckling, twitching legs.

    I don't know about raw yolk, since I have never tried that either, but I bet someone has posted about it on BYC. Yay! Hope she continues to get better! :)

    Listless duckling, twitching legs.

    Maybe homemade electrolytes/watered down Gatorade???? I have never used nutri-drench before though so any other advice would be better than mine. I hope that this might help you though! Homemade might be better if you decide to do electrolytes though since a flavored Gatorade might not be best....

    Need help and have questions about call duck hatching

    Need help and have questions about call duck hatching

    Yes my humidity was low during incubation, and then I increased it for lockdown. But it didn't affect the swedish, which just hatched. Are call ducks very temperamental? If so, what is the ideal temp and humidity for them? Is it different than other ducks? Thanks for your help and time!
