HELP

[Hannahbell1129]

When I touch her neck she seems to move away a little bit, other places not really, the only thing is she is difficult for me to pick up, running away , squirming, which is unlike her, I hope I get her trust back

Keep her calm and quiet. If the other duckling starts pestering her, separate them. And give the injured one a teddy bear to snuggle with and a little mirror so it will think it has a friend.

If you’re on your own and aren’t getting a lot of support from your parents, it’s ok. Us parents have a lot going on and like to see the kids be responsible for their pets. Which it looks like you are. I’m glad you are concerned about their welfare. There are a lot of people on here willing to give you as much help as possible.

Thank you all so much! Usually the other duckling is fine with her, shes the leader so finch just kind of sits next to her, if he starts bugging her I'll definitely separate them, and yeah, plus my parents hate animals , idk where I got the Jean but I absolutely love them

It really not hard to love these guys, I never did have a thing for birds.....until I got ducks! I love them soooooo much! I'll be praying for you and your little one!

Give us an update tomorrow on how she’s doing. And ask any questions along the way. Someone will usually be on here to answer you.

Oh gosh I'm so sorry to hear about this. It was an accident don't beat yourself up. They can really surprise you with how high they can jump and you wouldn't expect it.

I wish I had some really great advice for you but all I know is what the others have already said.

I had one fall out of the tote I had them in just yesterday. Somehow I snatched it out of the air mid fall like a ninja though so it happens to more than just you. Even when you are careful.

Definetly contact your local vet. If you don’t want to take the poor thing to the vet, then at least ask him/her what to do
