Ok now to play the waiting game.

But he is energetic he just kinda..sideways walks or runs and falls on his back.

He has gotten used to laying on his side half the time im pretty sure.

I saw it. I think you need to go see a vet or get some different feed, some vitamin E, and some vitamin b complex.

You think its to do with Vitamins? And im not sure i can afford a vet unless its an emergency. Especially for a possible unresolvable birth defect.


and doesn't Purina have Vitamin E and B?

Possibly vitamins, minerals, or amino acids.

And im not sure i can afford a vet unless its an emergency.

I know vets are expensive, but I think it would be best.

They have some, but not enough to treat a deficiency.

Well im not sure if i can afford one at the moment. And he seems healthy. He is eating and drinking.

Just flopping around as you saw.

Im just going to have to keep administering water and the healthy food to him until i dont know.

And i still want to see if anybody else here has other ideas/opinions.

I cant afford a $300+ Vet bill just to say he is handicapped.

He finished the whole spoon of purina-water just now.

Hello @CrowHaven !!
I agree, the duckling is a bit malnourished. If I were you, over the vet I'd just grab a few thing for supportive care!
Vitamin B complex
Vitamin E
Niacin

Here is a link for some vitamin B that is cheap and works great!

Vitamin E most people use soft, gel pills and cut them open to give duckling the liquid part.

For niacin you can add brewers yeast to the feed

I would suggest you switch to duckling starter because it has the essential vitamins and minerals for proper growth.
