Not sure about diarrhea because ducklings and ducks can have so many different kinds of poops depending on what they have eaten. Is your duckling acting sick and explain more details please ,what you fed and how long this has been going on. Thanks.

Need to keep in mind that birds have several different types of stool.....one is primarily uric acid and is white.....depends upon hydration and protein content of the diet for frequency.....second is the normal solid stool that is related to regular digestion of pellets, grains, and greens; and third is cecal.....the cecal is a secondary fermentation of the green vegetation for digestion of cellulose...generally once a day.....and extremely fluid and odiforous....
