Sorry your duckling is having trouble. I am going to move this thread to our Ducks forum for more help.

Is the duckling eating and drinking? What bedding are you using? have you seen the duckling nibbling on it?

Can you post pictures?
did the duckling hatch on its own or did it need help and did the yolk sac completely absorb?

It was absorbed. Sadly he passed.
