Not that different, when they have the shoes on they walk on the right part of the foot so I think they will have to where shoes their whole lives but I don't care as long as they are happy and healthy (they have them on all the time except for when we change them)

So sorry I have not updated, have been really busy I bought the yeast (found out it had good niacin) Peach has been gaining well still 20 ish grams smaller but gaining well

high in protein and having a good profile of biotin, zinc, and other B vitamins. This is all it says

Chick crumb with peas as a niacin supplement I would have to check (am out at the moment)

Incase you didn't see I just did update you Thanks

And hiccup's bottom beak is slightly longer than his top beak he is still eating fine though, he is just a wonky duck he always holds his head slightly to the side and his foot and now his beak

Fogot to say they are 5 days old now

We have made them splints out of plastic and I think it is helping But peach is not growing as well is the others I weighted them just now and peach was 31g, hiccup was 42g and dot was 43g is their anything I can feed her to help her grow? I will be weighing them every day now to monitor

Thanks They are on a towel so that it is soft and so it Is grippy

I found some o f those but the closest delivery was not till next week at which point they will have doubled in size and probably not really movable any more (i live in the uk) I am tapeing them but it does not make the foot straight the foot is more open now but it points towards the other...

Yes I have bandaids but I was not sure how to straighten their feet with them They love to swim but it doesn't seem to relax them I can straighten their feet but they won't stay their

Thanks I have been talking to wvduckchick and she said she didn't know but maybe shawluvsbirds can help

I hatched some of my friends call duck eggs and 2 of them were malpositioned in their eggs they both need help to hatch (as calls do but these were really malpositioned or the worst I have seen) and when they hatched their feet where pointing towards the other foot, hiccups left foot is wonky...

What I would do is see if she will go broody, if you don't want chicks then give her real eggs (the eggs that you get from the coop so that it is normal) and when she is broody switch them for fake eggs, this is the site I use (it is for ducks but it is the same principle)...
