Please help! 2-day-old Mallard Duckling

Probably so. How does her neck look any chance for a video? you'll have to put it on you tube or Vimeo and copy and paste here. Is she eating and drinking on her own now?
She can finally drink on her own without tilting her head so far back! I think she can eat on her own but if i just let her be, i don't think she eats/drinks enough. So i'm trying to get her to eat/drink more often. And i'll try to post a link to a video :D
 
Do you have food and water close enough she doesn't have to go far for it? Did you put a mirror in with her? they really enjoy the company of themselves. lol
The thing is, she moves around a lot because the container(?) she's in is kinda big. So even if i move it every time she moves around, she'll just go somewhere else later. I did put in a mirror and i plan on giving her a few stuffed toys as well :)
 
Hopefully these links will work. She flipped back in one part of the 1st video; from what i could tell, it seems like it's because she tried to stand up but her legs weren't strong enough? In the 2nd video she's walking around and squeaking a lot. It's making me a bit worried because i can't tell if she's just really excited that she can walk or something is stressing her. I don't think she ever squeaked this constantly. She's drank more water than usual from all the walking around. I kept offering her food before i took the 2nd video but she wouldn't eat it. It died down a lot after she pooped some. She's resting now but i'm confused. Was her stomach hurting? Should i be worried?😢
