So, we have 2 peking ducks and last night got 2 anacona ducks from my parents. We let them all out this morning, and the two new ducks went straight to our little pond and began swimming their hearts out. The male duck dove down deep into the water at one point but seemed to be fine, until abou 15 minutes later when I checked on him and he was floating near lifeless in the water. We initially thought that maybe the water was just too cold and that he was in shock or something. However, when I started blow drying him water started dripped out of his nostril. At one point he laid his head over and we thought he was dead...but, he's still hanging in there, and at times seems to be improving. He is fighting for sure. Question is...anyone have any idea what this may be, and is there something we can do to help this little guy? Thank you in advance for any advice.
