Ok so your compairing a Horse with a Water Fowl??? LOL

Just thinking out-loud and of course I would never put it on an unabsorbed yolk, but maybe, key word "maybe" I would *think* about it for one that looked raw (if that's the right word).

I like Blue kote also but I agree it wouldn't be a good idea to use it on a newly hatched duckling. I had always read to use betadine mixed with water to look like weak tea. But I will say I have never had to treat a duckling with a yolk sac unabsorbed, I did have to treat my 2 day old duckling from a leg injury when the snake pulled it through the fencing, I did use betadine/water on that injury. I would tell anyone to go by what you say Lacrystol since you are experienced with hatching in bators. 

AW THATS REALLY SWEET OF YOU THANK YOU!!!!

Oh that's horrible about the nasty snake but what works quite well for legs is vitamin b complete. One pill per quart. Works fast and great. I had a Cochin that was hatched out with one leg behind him, you would think he had mareks disease they way he would drag his foot. I made him a bouncy chair gave him vitamin b within 24 hours he was out of his bouncy chair and walking around on that leg.

Did you chop that snakes head off. Lol

That's funny. Horse versus duck HAHAHAHA.. Sorry I have a sad sense of humor here...

Well if the unabsorbed yolk isnt a large amount and you can get the duck or chick to make noise, you can actually help them get it absorbed, very tricky, scared but possible procudure...

Understand when they peep they aren't actually peeping because they are out and happy to see you although I like to think this way. They are actually having contractions.. Lol

When I found the snake wrapped around my duckling I grabbed it up and first unwrapped it [I just knew that poor thing was dead from being squeezed] then I slammed the snake against the feeder house I'm sure it was dead after that I threw it over the fence. I'm not a violent person and usually just carry blk snakes off if I find one inside one of the coops but oh my goodness that really got the adrenalin going. That little thing had a pretty nasty wound on it's lil leg I brought it inside and cleaning it up good put it into a dog crate with heat lamp and waited for a while before messing with it again, but it bounced back so well the next day I took it and gave it back to it's mama, I used Veterycin on it leg after initial cleaning. Thats another product i wouldn't be without. and sorry I got off tract from op thread.
