hi i have a duckling that has been having sezures since sat am he just goes down his neck streches out if were in the room we pick him up an he seemes to recover i guess when it happens when we are not in the room he gets him self up. he has trouble walking most of the time. he drinks water i think he is eating his flock raiser feed but will not eat the shreeded carrots we give them for a treat. Please help with advice . Aalso he happened to be my wifes favorite one which makes it harder
PS he is not a creasted duck

I am so sorry you have having this issue with this little one. I honestly don't know what could be the issue or how to respond other than, if it were mine, I would take it to a vet. I know in many places and circumstances that is hard to do. It sounds obviously neurological and there may not be much you can do for this one other than vet care or proper meds. So sorry again. I hope someone else chimes in that may have had a similar situation.


ps what kind of feed is it on? You say flock raiser, is it designed for growing babies? Is it medicated? How many ducklings do you have? Are others fine?

^^^ agreed. The vet sounds like the best thing for him at this point.


Good luck and hope he recovers.
