When should I give up on my daisy duck

[CayugaJana]

Great news @Jennyneuroth!! We are so happy to hear it. If you don’t mind me asking, what kind did you end up giving the duckling? And how much? And when did you start to see improvement? That way if other BYCers have the same issue and look up threads for advice, they can see what you did and get a head start on treatment!

Made my day!!

Me too!

I actually picked it up at bilo $6 Bogo

I gave her a full dropper mixed with food and a full dropper in her water....she seemed stronger the very next day after two days I felt confident to try her overnight with the other which is what she seemed to want! After I left her outside I have reduced to one full dropper in her food....making sure she eats separate! I did also cut back on niacin to just 1 100mg tab in her water.....but since I moved her outside I've been mixing both the niacin and liquid b to a small amount of food to make sure she is getting it! Also she didn't seem to care for the meal worms!

Daisy is my only pecken.....I first got her and the other biggest khaki campbell but when she first got sick I thought I was gonna lose her so I rushed out and bought two more to go with my other guy/girl so he wouldn't lonely!

I haven't named them all yet because I'm still uncertain of who is boys and who is girls but I think my son has decided on shadow for the oldest biggest one.....he claims that one as his!

I fell in love with these little grey chicks yesterday!

Do they have featherless legs and feet or feathered?
