Duck with yolk sac attached and broken, please help!!

[chrissillmusic]

I have a day old duck and it has a yolk sac that didn't absorb and it ended up breaking so I tied it with floss at the belly button so it would stop leaking yolk. The duck is very lively but I'm nervous and its heart is beating very fast, is there anything else I can do?

Sorry it took so long to respond.

I really hope I'm wrong, but all the times my chicks have leaked yolk they ended up dying. Prevent infection all you can, keep a close eye on it, get some scrambled eggs and electrolytes into it, as it doesn't have yolk to sustain it.

Best of luck!
