Help! All my ducklings are dying

[Eric_W]

Only the 8 ducklings died. The 3 juvenile ducklings seem to be completely fine. Unfortunately when we first got the little ducklings we brought one of the juveniles in just to see them a the male duckling jumped up and nibbles its the bigger ducklings foot. So from that he must’ve passed the disease on to her. I still think it’s crazy. That’s the on time they ever interacted and it was only a few seconds. But I’m guessing the one who got touched was the one who died. But it could’ve been another one, not sure how the other 3 didn’t get infected but I am thankful. The last welsh harlequin that died and the juvenile khaki Campbell that died were taken by the county to be examined to see why they died. They said results would be in Thursday or Friday but nothing yet.

The owner of Cackle hatchery is trying to claim they died of drinking too much water but that is not it as all. How could they have passed it on to the bigger duck? So far they have only refunded us for 3 of the ducklings. They won’t replace any either

Thats a first ever hearing a duck died from drinking too much water. You’re right makes no sense.
