When ever I put his head down, he gets out. I am very worried about his health. Also, the other ducklings are peking at him. He drank more sav a chick but is still in that postion. I think he mate have wry neck.
What do you mean? when i said make him a donut out of a towel after you roll the towel into a donut just place the ducking inside of the towel in normal position not on his back. that is what I meant by head up. This should keep the lil one in the right position. and separate him from the rest in the same brooder. the towel may do it if not place the duckling in a plastic show box with the donut so he is safe but able to stay warm and close by his sibs. Make sure to offer tiny amounts of save a chick water often.. and what makes you think it has wry neck?
it looks like it dose not have the strength to pull it's own neck up, thus weighing down the whole body. I cut of a part of the brooder for him to lay in. I also put water and food
ok, it seems like the yolk sac is dry, what do i do.
They one in the incubator has it yolk sac almost dry.
Did you fix a towel or something for it to lay in right side up[or normal position] have you been giving sips of save a chick water? At this point support and prayer is about all you can do. Also be careful when they can't hold up their heads they can drown in the water bowl.
just woke up, it's a Christmas miracle! He is doing great he can walk, steady himself and eat. The other one in the incubator though, dose it need water
I know here is a pice
