One of my five pekin ducklings died today, and I can't figure out why. They were all eating and drinking fine this afternoon, and I came back to find one dead. They are all a healthy weight, receive the right food and enough water, so I'm a little concerned for the others. One wasn't as active as the other remaining three, but its crop is fine and it was eating and drinking. It just was a little less active.

Can you describe some of the details, the temperature in the brooder, what they eat, what they drink from, stuff like that?
