How old? Where did you acquire him? Is he your only duckling? What are you feeding him?

We have been taking care of this lil one which is about 11 day old duckling .. He doesn’t stand up right and hunches forward and doesn’t walk flat footed . We came home and found him sprawled in our driveway its definitely not what we had expected to come home to . We have brewers yeast coming tomorrow to start and also going to start him on liquid b complex I made a post earlier and got some good advice on starting him on the yeast n liquid b but I was just hoping someone had one that had something similar going on with it before or going through the same thing.

Do the legs splay out to the side when this little duckling tries to stand or walk? Hobbling might help.

They do a little bit seems like the left one more then the right he swims great but just doesn’t stand up and walk and when he does it’s like a low crawl

Maybe try hobbles for a couple days and see by if it helps.

Looks like it might be spraddle leg or niacin deficiency. The B complex and yeast will help. My baby Call was sitting more than usual. I gave him niacinamide directly for a week and switched to a feed specifically for ducks. A week later, he's his usual super-energetic, running all over the place self.

I love it. Now we need I some pics of this little super energetic running all over the place self

I'll post a video later on the other thread. It's soooo hot that we won't be going for outside time until tonight. I freaking love this little one! So much fun!
