This is the last born Spencer. But she’s not at the same stage like the last 6 were at a few hours old. Revlyn is just a few hours older. Spencer was born around 2 yesterday afternoon. Revlyn I’m not sure what time only noticed backy 12 yesterday afternoon and she’s already up and toddling. But Spencer can’t seem to lift her neck or even walk. Just flops to the side and when lying down she just kicks her legs to her side like she’s swimming but sideways. When holding her she just goes completely limp as you can see with her head just flops down and she tucks her head down.

For now I’ve put her in a sock.

I’m aware of Wry neck but not sure if that could be what’s wrong with her.

Yolk water.
It is best is you can keep the chick near. A chick that lays on it's back and kicks will soon loose energy. If you have it near by, keep it up right, and give it sips of yolk water. It will get stronger faster. Below April 5th

Mine are ducklings though. Would this work? And if so how do I prepare it?
