I understand, which is why I have been making a very balanced diet for the other two, including making our own feed supplemented by hard boiled eggs, fish and different types of fresh vegetables every day. I realize that I will not get the balances completely perfect, but I still think it's better than cheap commercial feed (here) or a diet of rice. Our two other ducklings are spoiled rotten and very healthy. Our neighbors have come over and laughed at us because they had never seen ducks treated as pets and couldn't believe what we were feeding them! This new duckling had been found on the street and raised by someone else for his first 11 days and started having seizures the day after I got him, so the issue was pre-existing.
The new duckling is 15 days old and weighs 52 grams. I think that must be really small, even for a small breed. What do you think?
