I have a one-day-old muscovy duck that sometimes runs in circles and sometimes seems to have trouble controlling its head movements. It is about 2/3 the size of the other babies. I brought it in the house because it looked like someone had been beating up on it. It has some skinned places on its neck and little wings. I thought that, perhaps, the mother is trying to kill it because she knows something is wrong with it. Or is something wrong with it because someone has been picking on it??
Has anyone ever seen this condition in a baby duck? He seems to be eating and drinking ok (if I show him where the water is. He hasn't found it on his yet that I know of). Is there anything I can do for the little guy?? I hate to lose him/her. It is just too cute!
Thanks in advance for your help. Hope you all have a GREAT day!
