Hi everyone,
I have a clutch of Muscovy ducklings 9 altogether.
One died early on with syptoms similar but not identical to this. I noticed one of the ducklings was weak and very wobbly when trying to walk, I separated her from the others and brought her inside to keep her warm and keep a close eye on her. I also noticed very laboured breathing with a crackling noise coming from her chest, almost like pneumonia, the odd sneeze/ cough and her head would fall back spontaneously and shed fall backwards. I've not come across this before so thought I'd contact this fantastic community for some help.
Any ideas / suggestions welcome.
