Hello im really sorry for bothering you again we hatched the other duck at 4am this morning that was 36 hours after pip his legs were over his head but he has been having green diarrhea do you have any idea what the cause of this could be? Or if it is safe to put him in the brooder with the other duck or keep them separate? Thankyou so much

Is it possible to get a picture? Sometimes the first few poops are an odd color.

He is also covered in alot of dry membrane on his back and wing ive tried to wet it off with wet kitchen paper but i cant get it off. Am i better to leave it?

Those look like hours old duckling poops to me. They should change colors once he's eaten.

Pictures of how much he has stuck on him are helpful. I'd try running him under warm water and using the towel and scrub it off, then blow dry him afterwards. Be very careful not to pull out too many of his feathers. If it's really stuck on there you may need to leave it and try and get it off in a few days.

You can also put him with his sibling when you're done.
