Hi.... we recently got some ducklings shipped... one of them is smaller than the rest and can’t walk or stand. She seems otherwise healthy, eating and drinking. I’ve done some research and added brewers yeast to the baby chick feed. When i put her in water for “water therapy” she can move her legs and swim. I was told to make splints for her legs, but not sure how to do this or if it would help at this point since she can’t even stand yet. Her little webbed feet won’t spread out and are kind of curled.
Please let me know if you have any other thought or ideas... it really makes me sad and I just hope that maybe she was just premature or something. Also, we have only had them for a couple days... How many days/weeks can this take if it’s fixable?.

I posted some pics of her little feet.
