please help my duck!

hello guys, since my black duck was born, he hasn’t been able to raise his head. he can’t walk and would always fall. i heard this may be because of wry neck and legs, so i got a rooster booster serum to help that comes tomorrow. is there anything else i should do? i placed him back in the incubator because everyone else picked at him and i placed a rubber band around his legs to hopefully help with the spraddle,he’s really weak should i use a human multivitamin for the night or wait?

Maybe try feeding him some egg yolk and honey?
When was he hatched? What were the conditions?

i tried yolk this morning but he didn’t like it as much! he hatched yesterday. he pipped but couldn’t get out so little by little i helped him out and left him there to hatch by himself

It's possible he just didn't hatch with what he needs to survive. If you have little syringes with out the needle, you can try getting something into him. Tiny amounts of egg yolk and honey might be able to help. Or just honey and water. Raw honey, if you can. I am unsure about other solutions, I haven't had those kind of problems with one so young that survived.

ohh, that makes sense i’ll try to give him some yolk then and see if maybe that helps again. thank you!
