Ducklings Are Mysteriously Dying Please Help

[Northern Appalachian]

They have a strange disease eating their down and webbing, I’ve never seen this before. Some Latinos that didn’t speak much English dropped them on us and two have already died, one currently dying. PLEASE HELP. We just had them at the avian vet last Tuesday and he didn’t catch this.

They also stand/walk with their feet on top of each other and they groom almost constantly and have scabbing in their feet. 3 are still alive, we bathed them in apple cider vinegar.

I am so sorry to hear this! Hopefully they will be able to get better... keep up with cleaning their feet in the ACV and make sure that their brooder is really clean as well. No dirty water, cleaning out poops, etc.

You might want to have them back at the avian vet. I know it’s expensive, but could help greatly if you aren’t able to get any more advice here.

Good luck my fingers are crossed that they will make it...
