Well, Scuttle started laying GIANT eggs awhile ago and I guess Dad put four of them in the bator. Today I came home and the one that was still alive hatched. But there's a problem...
His/her third eyelid on the left side is "stuck" so that it's covering a large part of the eye when it's open. S/he also cannot stand up independantly at all because his/her neck seems to be "craned' and stuck that way. I can gently change the position of the neck, but it goes right back to the way it was after. What's wrong with my duckling? Should I wait awhile to see if the problems get better with some growing or what?
