    I'm concerned that she's just not thriving. She is much smaller in size compared to her hatch mates. I've given her some poly-vi-sol and made a little chick chair for her thanks to your pictures. I also wrapped her legs with some vet wrap to help stabilize. I tried doing the rubber band &...

    So I have 5 ducklings and a goslings that are around 3 weeks old. As much as I would love to keep them in my house forever it's just not an option anymore. One of my idiot dogs killed one of our chickens last week (they were free ranging in the yard and he was let out by a neighbor kid that...
