These 3 cuties. We called and asked what kind of ducklings they had. Straight run

You know that's not a kind of duck right. Anyway no limit on how many ducks. DS wanted to bring home 2 and we notice 1 had a crooked neck. I asked what they were going to do for him/her. They said they were looking into it. So I asked if they had any poly-vi-sol without iron and brewer's yeast. They guy said he'll give him/her to us for free if we want to take care of him/her. How could we say no. They even got their 1st day outside as it is 89 degrees here today.

here is the little one with the twisted neck. It's hard to get a great pic of how it really looks as he/she is running all about.

Thanks everyone, they are just so cute! They follow all of us around. DS is marching them around the house. I love how adorable ducklings are. Funny when we walked them up to the duck house to see how the adult would react. The adult ducks all ran inside. Duh!

They have already learned how to hop up stairs. Its so funny.

unaspenser I do think the 1 duckling has wry neck. When I hold him/her in my hands and hold it head up straight, it just falls asleep. If its on the ground it runs around it circle looking for it's buddies. But if nearby, he/she will follow them where ever they go.
 
Well I'm thinking the little 1 with the twisted neck is twisted from it's skeleton and not muscle. Not sure that this can be fixed. I've been giving the vitamins and brewer's yeast. He/she is very active and eating and drinking fine. Not really any change in the neck so far. He/she is just so sweet. I think I read about someone using tape to help hold the head in position. I may try this. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
