I have no idea what I am doing

Congratulations on you successful hatch! I've read the entire thread. You did an amazing job.
You can get packets of probiotics at either your pet store or local feed store to add to its drinking water...each packet makes a gallon of water. For the one baby, just measure the powder, divide by 4 and mix a quart at a time.
You can find Brewer's yeast at your pharmacy. Crush the pills and sprinkle on his food.
Local farm and ranch stores carry game bird feed that have a medicated crumble feed in 40 pound sacks. Divide into Gallon zip lock bags will help keep it fresh.
Those same stores might have ducklings to become buddies with your single baby. Yesterday I just bought four Pekins to go with my 5 babies that just hatched Thursday.
 
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I thought medicated feed for ducklings was a big no....
Game bird ration for wild ducks, turkey, pheasant, quail, etc., comes in a regular crumble for adults and a starter/grower crumble that is lightly medicated for hatchlings to a certain weight range.
