Lame duckling

[radha snyder]

She splinted it forward(with bandages and a paper lip), hoping that it would strengthen and grow in a more natural position. I’ll change the splint every few days. Fingers crossed!

Thanks for the update and I hope your duckling gets better.

Me too sure hope the splint and wrap works. What a precious little one. Please keep us updated.

He didn’t make it, in-spite of the splint, hand-feeding, etc. he was just too weak

We had a big surprise this morning, though! We looked in the nest and there were 2 more eggs buried. Moms haven’t sat on the nest for days, but one has pipped and the other is working on it. I can’t believe they’ve made it this far with no mom
