If you dont see any big blood vessels I would very slowly peel away the membrane where the bill is and move the bill so he/she can breath.... IMHO

Someone needs to bid on these before I do!

How neat!!! I guess I'm gonna have to wait til it gets feathers. How old are the girls when they start quacking? One or two of them have awful raspy voices but I think it's too early to tell.

It'll be a couple of months on quack sexing them. They like to keep you guessing as long as possible!

Just an FYI-these are REALLY a rare variety, but these are PQ ducks. I have no problem with PQ ducks, but there are so few of this color around, that unless they throw a surprise REALLY good quality duckling, there is almost no way to improve their type/conformation. Fantastic just to have, though!

Ady, if you pull the head, give the little weak one some electrolytes in some water and dunk the little bill. I know this sounds crazy to hydrate them while they're trying to absorb the yolk, but sometimes it helps.
