Sneezing and wheezing

[Jonny901]

Hi,One of my 5 day old ducklings has started sneezing and wheezing. She's got water to dunk her head in and is doing and is eating and drinking as normal but sneezes a couple of times a minute and is breathing with a bit of a whistley wheeze. Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with her? I've tried getting her to sit under the electric hen but she's having none of it and runs out to be with the others.

What type of bedding are you using?...What type of heat source?

Cant go wrong with the save a chick combo!! U can also try vetrx. But if there's something serious wrong these won't fix it.

They're in dust-free sawdust in a kids sandpit. It has a feeder for food and one for water and then a old butter tub with holes in the lid with water in so they can dunk their heads. They have an electric hen for warmth too.

Do you have a supplier in the UK you order from?

No but it's such a basic product of probiotics and electrolytes that I'm sure I Amazon has it!!
