Please help! It's day 27 with no movement or internal pip from the duckling, what should I do?!

If vent sexing, you can actually do it from day 1 and it's easier to vent sex when younger rather than older.

Aure's poop has been really watery the last few poops shes done. I'm not sure if its normal? She does drink a lot of water.

Normal. What is she being fed?

Even though its liquid? She eats non-medicated fancy feed chick crumb because I cant find any duckling feed here and the farm I volunteer at uses that feed with no problems

Most duck poop is liquid because they drink so much water.

If you are not supplementing with niacin, you may want to look into doing that. Chick feed does not usually have enough for ducklings. Not getting enough niacin may be why she is lying down to eat.

Oh that makes sense!

I know we can use yeast but how much should I give her each day?

You need to make sure its nutritional yeast.
