I woke up at 7 this morning to really loud peeping coming from the room where I keep the brooder. My mom was just checking on the ducklings and making sure they had food and water. She noticed that the newest duckling was laying around and was super weak. We could pick it up and it was completely limp, but it was still quite a peeper. We put it by the stuffy near the warmest spot in the brooder and hoped it would make it. When I got back up this morning at 9, the duckling was dead in the middle of the brooder...it was so sad.
I have no idea what happened to it. It was only two or three days old and the other ducklings are very healthy and are little monsters. I'm kind of worried that something might happen to them though... Are there are vitamins I can give them to keep their strength up? I'm hoping to sell them soon and I want to make sure I'm selling strong ducklings!
