Newly hatched duckling with leg abnormality?

[AlyssaB4]

Hello,

this duckling just hatched a few hours ago, i am noticing that the legs seem to be bent. This is my first time hatching ducklings and I would like to find out if this is something abnormal or not? Also what do I need to do to fix the legs if there is something wrong?
Thanks in advance

Or is this normal and it will stand up later on?

It looks like it's standing in water. Once it gets into the brooder post more pictures. especially once you see if it will stand normally. It could be slipped tendon but we'll need better pics before we can determine that. It may just still be weak from hatching. Hatching is hard work.

Looks perfectly normal for a fresh hatched duckling

Thank you!
The other duckling just hatched now, but it still has a bit of yolk stuck to it. Will this affect it much?

If mine I'd place it on a soft wash cloth or paper towels in a small bowl until all the yolk is absorbed in the bator.

I agree with @Miss Lydia . Also it more than likely will need a little extra help at first and grow more slowly than the others for a little bit.

How are your ducklings this morning? @AlyssaB4
