Hi guys,
We have one out of 14 ducklings that hatched 5 days ago is eating and drinking well but has some balance issues as well as only walks in one direction in circles.
It seems like he had a stroke and was born this way.
We seperated him from the others briefly yesterday but he seems fine being with the others. We are keeping an eye on him so he doesn’t get picked on.
Is there anything we can do to help him?
They are drinking and on mazuri starter and all jumped first day of being chicks.
Any advice appreciated!
ThanksVideo of chick here
