Okay. I neeed help my duckling won't stand up! Is it paralyzed?
What does it look like? How old is it? What are you feeding it? Assuming you are giving it a chicken starter food, are you giving it supplemental niacin (don't use "flush free" or "time release") or brewers' / nutritional yeast (not active yeast)? Does it have full range of motion in its legs and can it move its legs while swimming (with a young duckling have warm (100F) not hot water for them to swim in and supervise them 100% of the time they are in the water.) Can it hold its head up on its own? (If not, don't do the swimming check).
