My free range duck is hanging her head down. She can walk and get around but not lift her head all of the way. It’s not loose like it’s broken it seems stiff. She is drinking water and eating fine. The neighbor said he even saw her go for a swim in the pond. I have her secluded for the night and...

Yes he made it! He is very deformed/crooked but gets around perfectly fine!

This duckling had a super bad hatch in which we thought he wouldn’t survive but with some extra niacin and electrolytes he survived. They are pekin x khaki campbells. He is super crooked! Do you think it’s wry tail or scoliosis? I can get some better pictures tomorrow however I am just worried...

Hi friends! My duckling is doing much better and is walking! He is getting his food and electrolytes and water. He didn’t poop that I could tell yesterday but has been poop a bunch today. Some seems to stick to his butt but I clean it right away. And he has gotten a warm bath! His poop is much...

I figured putting it with them would be helpful so maybe it would be motivated to try and stand up more. Some one mentioned on Facebook I could put some paper towels in a cup and put him in there to help strengthen his legs

Thank you 😞 he moves around a lot. I’ve tried putting his feet under her and he ends up just dragging himself around. He’s cuddling with his siblings. They all can tell something is wrong with him.

Yes he has! It looks all good!

He almost seemed a deformed his neck seem crooked and his wings seem to be different sizes. I feel so bad for him :(

I had a duckling hatch last night with the yolk not fully absorb. He was extremely weak. It’s been about 18 hours and he is still very weak and cannot stand so he drags himself around with one of his legs dragging behind. I am assuming the worst that this guy isn’t going to make it. Any...

One of my ducks just hatched with what I assume is it’s umbilical cord. It seems pretty weak. What can I do to help it?

Awesome thank you :)

Perfect! What about grit? Do you use that at all? Deciding if I should return it.

No sorry it’s just this! Don’t know where I got chow from lol 🤦‍♀️I’ve been up since 4am so I’m not all here apparently!

I have ducklings in the process of hatching! I bought purina duck chow and have ground it up into crumbles along with nutritional yeast. Is this the best to feed to them? I also bought some grit. Do you add the grit to your food or in a separate bowl? Also when can they start having things like...

Hi! Thank you so much for the reassuring words. I’ve been so anxious thru this whole process. Our neighbor has khaki cambells 3 females and 3 drakes. Well every year at least one female lays her eggs in our flower bed. Well late April not one but two females made a joint nest and there was at...

First time incubator as I saved some eggs that the neighbors duck abandoned two weeks ago. They started pipping about 36 hours ago. This guy made two small pips and was peeping up a storm. I got paranoid that the membrane was to sticky or dry. I pulled away some of the shell and saw it had...
