Sorry guys. Life got hectic. Baby is still fine. The whole hatch was wierd. I had 4 ducklings pipped on lock down day (3 external 1 internal) they all hatched in 24 hours. I got 3 more within 48 or proper hatch day. This was the last one. The hernia had fully closed 24 hours after I removed the shell. We were concered about some neurological issues but i think it was just blood loss. She is still the smallest and looks tiny compared to the early hatchers. Everyone has been having small swimming sessions since she was 24 hours old. They moved outside with an all the time swimming pool (instead of my bathtub) at about 2 weeks.

Now I'm just trying to decide when to turn them loose with the whole flock. I have some broody hatched ducklings whoes mama has given up mama-ing them that are almost fully feathered and most as big as their mom with 2 confirmed quacks. They are 6.5 weeks old. These are now 3 weeks old. Mama is being broody again not sure what I will do about that.
