Hey all...this poor little guy! We had a horrible hatch, temps are screwed up on my bator (just bought yet ANOTHER thermometer online today...the Brinsea). Anyway, had to cull one baby due to messed up leg and then this one hatched (I had to help it) and it has NO EYEBALLS! No slits, no lids, no holes, NOTHING. Just a concave area on it's skull where the eyeballs should be covered in down. I was thinking it wasn't going to make it, but lo and behold this morning it was all the way out and trying to walk around in the hatcher. I know that I should probably cull it, but it is such a fighter, I am feeling bad! Ugh...any suggestions? If it is with other ducks, think it will be able to eat, etc?? Obviously it would be an easy pick for predators, but I am hoping to find someone with a soft heart that wants to care for it.
Lemme know what you guys think!
