Help me with this duckling!!! (Sowilu)

• Help me with this duckling!!! (Sowilu) Sowilu Posted : 7/10/2008 7:13:36 PM A guy brought me a duckling, he was going to run over him but he saw him in time ! I have no idea how to take care of a duck or where is the nearest animal rehab in my area. What can I do until I can take him some where safe? He is in a medium size crate right now. Does he need to stay warm? What about food? I feel sorry for the little guy because maybe its mom was near .I have no idea what kind of duck he/she is. HELP!! I have placed a cardboard and a towel in there along with a warm water bottle under the towel. I will try to give it crushed cockatiel pellets if that doesn't work I will try cooked rice for right now as I don't have any feed.

• Anonymous Posted : 7/10/2008 9:06:31 PM I had ducks and geese when living with my parents. He/she looks like a mallard. That's what I had and he looks like mine did when they were babies. Go to the feed store and get some duck food. Right now you could give him crackers or bread.   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
