Pekin duck egg day 29 HELP!!! Pleaseeeeeee!!!

[Miss Lydia]

i agree!! He finally chirped!! I aint never been so happy to hear a chrip lol

Okay we heard his decision. "I can do this" Yay.


@WVduckchick your so right [please forgive me for getting into such a big hurry] Danielle and possibly causing problems. Duckling has the last word hopefully on whether to help or not.

Another reason I don't have a bator. It's bad enough I am peeking under my mamas waiting.

Don't be silly.... You are wonderful encouragement, and always concerned. I'm bad about peeking under mamas too..

Oh boy, you may have to end up helping after all. But see if he can get situated first. Their webs do get close up around there, not usually behind the head though.

Knock on the window, flash your light at him, try to keep him active. We don't want him getting stuck in that position.

Have you seen this video? Its a chicken, but basically the same principal overall

Sing loud that would probably motivate action. It would if I did it. They'd hatch and run for the hills.

Oh my gosh. I think you put them in a cup lined with soft clean cloth which applies pressure on the belly and help them absorb.

@WVduckchick ???

How bad is it? Can you get a pic?

Most important is to have him on something that he can't drag it on. Like a soft rag, towel, etc.

I hope he is perking up. They absorb pretty quickly though, so hang in there!

i have him on a soft rag but he refuses to stay still lol

The bleeding didnt last long and has stopped completely so thats a good thing and his feet are normal too!

Looks like he got in a bit of a hurry, but that will be fine in the morning!

Gorgeous baby!
