So sorry for the loss of your ducklings, we can't say it enough how important it is to make sure what ever you keep your flock in is as safe as it can be because predators never give up. Your duckling doesn't look like a Pekin because from what I can see it looks like it has some other coloring on it's feathers, can you get a better pic in better lighting? and yes they can be tramatized poor thing has been through a lot, my first suggestion would be to get it another duckling, they do so much better if they have one of their own to snuggle with and run around with. They are very dependent on one another, you'll have to spend a lot of time with one duckling to make it happy. they are flock animals and like flocks. Hoping you'll decide to find another ducklings is myand first rec. but until you do decide whats best for your baby give it a stuffed animals to cuddle with and if you can find one of those bird mirrors they have for parrots that would be nice to put into it's brooder. make sure it has no sharp edges. and lots of out side time they need plenty of day light and running around time to be healthy.
