Unfortunate coincidence or worrisome problem spreading? We found one of the Muscovy ducklings on its back this morning, unable to turn over without help.

It looked a lot like what’s been plaguing the goslings and, for an afternoon, one of the Khaki Campbell ducklings. We don’t know what it is, but suspect either nutrition issues – so we switched their feed, or an infection – so we’re giving them a 5 day course of antibiotics.

The Khaki Campbell duckling recovered after one night. The goslings seem very tired but haven’t fallen more, and are eating and drinking (and sleeping a lot).

The Muscovy duckling seemed fine after being helped up, so maybe, hopefully, it was a coincidence…
