Ok. It's something that just kind of happens randomly. It can be caused by genetics too. Mine is fully grown and healthy, and living in the next state over with his siblings.
So weird. I guess the farmers market ladies ducks are either not great quality or it was just a fluke. He seems to be just as active as the other duck, and he eats and drinks just as much, so we'll see if he catches up. Even if he's just a tiny guy forever that's okay with me.
You could contact the lady and ask her maybe? Idk if she would have any idea though. He's either extremely runty or dwarfed. Sounds like he has an amazing new family though. I'm sure he's in wonderful hands! Let me know what happens. Hopefully he catches up. He is SO tiny compared to his buddy.
. He's very odd looking compared to his big sibling. He's very light in color pretty much all over. But you wouldn't know anything was different with him! He's got a big personality and keeps up with the bigger one just fine. I think he's gonna be an interesting looking little duck 
. He is growing, be it very very slowly. But he's a chunky little thing!
Awww! Thank you so much for the update! I'm glad he's doing well. He looks so cute! ❤Update time! Both ducklings are doing great. The little one is..well, he's still very little
. They're both growing so fast. The little one is still about half an inch/inch smaller, but he's catching up really quick. I think the big ones gonna be like, a jumbo pekin or something . He's enormous. Sorry the pictures are always in the tub, I usually take them right after I clean out the brooder.
They are adorable. I used to raise tufted pekins and Campbell’s. Pekins have such a lovely personality, very friendly and cheerful. You’re doing a great job with little Mischief. But i’d seriously call the pair Double Trouble! Keep us posted i’d love to hear more.Another update just because I really love sharing pictures of these 2
This post was almost 5 months ago. They're both doing great! Their names are Raspberry and Blackberry.
Here's a few! Some were taken after a huge rain storm, hence all the mud.
