Duckling Leg Problem

[pricejacquelene]

Hey Y’all,

I have 55 Pekin ducklings that I picked up from TSC. I walked by them in the brooder and they were literally crushing themselves to death. I had to buy them to get them out of there.



3 have developed this problem where they have trouble walking with really swollen leg joints. I have been feeding them a duck starter feed and have been adding additional brewers yeast to their feed since I got them.

What could be causing this problem? What can I do to fix this and make them more comfortable?

Aww poor things. They must not have been warm. I would have bought them all too. Thank you for buying them and saving them!
