So should I be worried that it isn't really walking around??!!?? It kinda just drags itself around the bator...it is chirping, head up, tries to flap its wings, and drags itself around. I haven't yet seen it stand up? Is there anything I should do??

i have one tht hatched around 6 this evening and its almost 11 and he is just now able to get up on his legs and sorta walk he is trying his darndest(spelling?) how long has it been since hatch?

Some of mine took a several hours to get dry and start to stumble around. By 24 hours they were running around great.​

its been about 4 1/2 hours it has been moving around more now, so I am hoping maybe he will get the hang of it. I wish some of his duckling buddies would hatch so he would have a friend! I have several pips!

I have had babies that couldn't really walk for days. Don't let it bother you. Essentially, if something is wrong, at this stage, it's nothing you can fix unless it's got legs on wrong or curled toes. They are weak and floppy for a while. It's hare to watch when you want them to be up and about, but it's normal.
