    Ducklings leg is weird. Can’t walk

    Hello, I hatched a duckling yesterday and it’s leg is like stuck to its side. It’s not stuck per se, but he’s unable to stretch it out. He is healthy and he’s moving fine, just can’t walk very well. I think it could be because he was inside the egg for too long or something similar. I had to...

    Duck seems to have weak legs

    I have 6 ducklings about 3 and a half weeks old to 4 weeks. They are currently on chick starter. I just changed them to a lower protein one of 18%. I have one specific duckling who seems to always walk on his feet which causes him to stumble and plop down. I notice him scooting around instead of...

    Baby duck with deformed leg.

    I just hatched 6 babies.

The joint at the tibia...
