I'm thinking keeping it down, because after I give him a drink, He sleeps but when he sleeps, he's got his head prop on something..

He seems to keep his head by the fan, almost like a way of drying up the liquids..

Quote: They're at the feed store I go to, so I get to see them a couple of times a week. Nice guy that's taking care of them... last week I told him one looked off, so I grabbed her and did an exam and found a stuck soft shelled egg in her, Her took her home, gave calcium and she good as new and laying hard shelled eggs now! Cute little Mallard colored one. They have other colors, too, but I have no clue as to what Call colors they are.

Tomorrow will be day Five if the three day rule applys for them surviving with just there yolk, he's past that now. So The quesiton is, What's keeping him alive? He's got to be getting some of the drops that I'm giving him down in him. otherwise he would be dead by now right?

When he was hatched out friday, he broke his main vein, he bleed a lot, I applied pressure to get it to stop, but I had to hold on to it for a good Five minutes or so.. So I knew right off the bat we were going to have an issue but I didn't think a drinking, eating problem. He can stand but not for long periods, he's almost like a drunk when he does stand.
