More ducklings day 28

We (and most of the Portland region) are currently experiencing a power cut due to heavy winds. Fortunately, the ducklings are old enough that they should be fine overnight if the power doesn’t come back on by then.

Another issue is that I’ve noticed that the Blue Swedish duckling has a gimpy leg; she seems to be limping a bit, and not wanting to put weight on it. I don’t know if there’s anything I can do about that, other than hope it gets better, though I should try to grab her and see if there’s an obvious cause. Could be an injury, bumblefoot (abscess), or niacin deficiency, though the latter is unlikely since I add some to their food.

On with the usual pictures of treat time:
