Hi have nowhere else to ask,I know it’s duck and not chicken but my duckling hatched around 2 days ago and can’t walk, it shuffles on its belly straightening it’s legs and kicking them , was hoping it would be fine in a couple of days but still not better. Is there anything I can do to help?
Thank you
It’s currently drinking vitamin water, not eaten as of yet

Oh poor thing! Has it not stood up on its own at all in the last 2 days? It should have gotten its feet under it by now. Have you tried offering it food to see if it would try to eat?
