my reply to this one:

Don't leave him or her where you left it a cat or something else migth make the bird it's next snack.

Bring it in the house if you see the parents in the yard looking for him or her, leave him near where you originally found him and they'll probably find him or her, if not kep the bird with you and contact a wildlife shelter and let somebody from there pick up the bird.

my reply:

Aww, how cute! at that age a most of birds usually think anything that moves (including) is their caretaker. Keep him or her with you and way from your cats & dog. If you can get him or her to vet ask if they can transfer to a wild life center. Try going to a pet store and get some meal worms, these can be foudn in the reptile section, offer them one at a time and be sure to give the bird soem water, use drinking water NOT tap.

Hope this helps!

my reply:

First off if if you have the egg DON'T take it back a dog, other birds or another duck might mess with it. If you have a heating pad set it on low and put it in a box, put a towl on top of it . After that leave the egg on it with a small container of water(a small glass is fine just make sure it won't tip over). After that take a twoel and cover the end of the box where the egg and the container is, you may need to sue clothespins or binderclips to hold the towel up.

Keep it in a room away from pets and anyone else that may try to mess with it. You'll need to turn it over 3-5 times a day.

But you may wnat to check to see if it's fertile. Hold it up to a flash light in a dark room, if you see veins and a dark spot(embryo) it's fertile, if it's clear, but DON'T throw it out right away give it a few more days and check it again.

If you wnat the best advice ask a vet or wildlfie shelter or go here:
