I’ve lost two duckling in the last two days, one yesterday and one today. I’m not real sure what’s going on cause they weren’t squashed and they were both in the exact same position, upside down on their backs with their legs spread. They didn’t show any symptoms either, they were fine and then dead. Do you guys have any suggestions?

They are bad about getting over on their backs and not being able to flip back. Your bedding looks like they would be able to use it for leverage. Were their bellies extra fat? Seems like the ones with the fattest bellies seem to have the most trouble.

That’s what my sister said. It’s hay, every other batch has been just fine. No, they weren’t really any fatter than the others.
