Helped hatch a duckling now I need some help

[OilyMumma]

Hi there..
Had our duckling who needed assistance with hatching. It’s doing well but has a patch of fur that must not of had all the sticky yolk cleaned off that wasn’t absorbed. Can safely say I wish I read the info on here before we started to help. Any who bubba duck is doing great aside from this so the question is how do I get it off? Should I even bother? Or just let it be? TIA

You can just leave it and it will usually be gone in a day or two. Or you can take a warm, wet q-tip and try to loosen it up a little. But don’t worry, it will go away. Glad it’s doing good!

If it bothers you, you could gentle wash the duckling under warm water and blow dry it a while before putting it back in the brooder.
