HELP duckling looks like it's dying!

He took a dunk in the water dish night before last but seemed ok after he dried off. This morning he was sitting in the corner away from the heat source and within a short while declined abruptly. I tried giving it food and water and it seems like it's going downhill fast. What should I do?

Keep him nice and warm and dry. I would try giving him hard boiled eggs

You need to put him under a red heat lamp, or put him in an incubator. Try to towel dry him too. You need to get him dry fast. Dont give him any food or water. Does he feel cold?

It's been 2days since he got wet. He is very dry and under a heat lamp. Still can't stand and seems to be struggling.

He won't eat or open his beak

@Miss Lydia and @Isaac 0 know a lot about this i think

Do you have an incubator? If so, put him in it with the temp set to 90 degrees. Do not do anything with him until he is warmed up. Once warm, you could try giving drops of Pedialyte or Gatorade.

Your tag didn't work. @Isaac 0 can you help?
