They are all growing so fast and Ity Bity is still smaller but seems to be growing too! Yes her bill is still turning up and she can’t close her bill and she breathes heavy and I’m not sure if that is because she is breathing with her bill open or what? I watch her drink and eat daily so I know she is doing good.

Your doing a good job with them they look great. If she having to breathe through her mouth that probably why she breathes heavy but she looks good.

Wondering if her nares/nostrils are deformed and not open enough to breath well thru them.

@aart I’m pretty sure they said she doesn’t have any.

Yes when I look and touch her top Bill there are no nostrils or either closed up from the deformity.

I found this duck on Instagram! I have messaged them but I am hopeful they will respond! Good to see an adult with her condition!
