Growing fast then the other

[Mylittlefarmof12]

One of my week old pekin ducklings is growing faster then the other. Plus the smaller one doesn't seem to be active the eyes look like they should be more open. Should I be concerned?

Same age or did you pick them out from a box at the feed store?

Do you wet the feed at all to a soupy mix?

She eats just fine. But something is wrong. Not sure what to do

I would try it anyway. It could help her bulk up a bit.

x2 at what @chickens really said as well as @Sparrowsong98 said regarding wetting their feed.
Ducks love wet feed anyway, it won't hurt.
What type of feed are they on?
When did you receive your ducklings?
