Sorry haven't posted an update, I had some ducklings hatch and my hands have been full of Joy!
Update: we done a necropsy on her and she had so much fluid on her brain. It was a huge fluid sac underneath the skin. When we cut clear liquid went every where. Does any one know what would cause the fluid?

Sounds like hydrocephalus, water on the brain. It can be a genetic thing. And congrats on your ducklings!!

I’m sorry . These things happen, there’s no getting around it. But now you have the new ducklings and your current chicks to love!

Yes I guess part of life of letting go and moving on. Just love animals to live to old age and pass away not babies.

Very true. She will be missed but you gave her a good time while she was here.

Some other people would have culled her the moment they noticed signs, so you did the best you could

You are so right I know so many people who don't give animals a chance. I had a chick hatch that had spraddle leg. She couldn't stand up at all. Everyone said put her out of her misery, I didn't I stayed up and made shoes stayed on google creating things. She is now my favorite chicken very full of personality gives me a egg 7 day's a week.
