She is doing fabulously! I gave molasses this morning and moved her and the other two(another hatched) into the brooder box because I couldn’t see anything where it shouldn’t be. She was so hungry, she scooched over to the mash and has been eating and drinking. It’s hard to tell the difference...
This morning I don’t see any more yolk. And another baby hatched and is snuggling her. It’s hard to tell which is which at the moment, but I’m pretty sure that it’s the super weak one (haven’t opened the bator yet) I will give a little molasses for a quick boost and scrambled eggs. Would duck or...

First time hatching ducks, but I’ve hatched a few rounds of chicks before. This one had been struggling, shaking and just not right. Is it unabsrobed yolk?
