    Ducks injured by raccoon

    She's hungry today! After only 3 tube feedings she is finally interested in her pellets! She is still holding her neck a little weird, but she is eating a lot. I'm so relieved. Thank you guys, again and again. You helped me save my duck. Thank you so much.

    Ducks injured by raccoon

    I will do my best not to let that happen. I went really slowly and checked down her throat a few times. Thank you again. She's about the same. She drinks water but has shown no interest in food. When I let her swim in the tub she acts pretty normal and preens herself as best she can afterwards.

    Ducks injured by raccoon

    I got my feeding syringe and tube in the mail today and after 3 botched attempts, I finally fed her 30ml of feed mixed with water, electrolytes, probiotics, and some aspirin. She was very offended. But like, I could see her crop expand with the food. I felt like I finally did something good and...

    Thank you. I'm scared to do that. She doesn't like handling and I'm afraid I'd choke her if she struggled. She shows interest in her pellets, but has trouble bending her neck down to eat.

    Ducks injured by raccoon

    Thank you. I'm not putting it down her throat, just a little bit in the front of her mouth. I've been letting her swim in the bathtub and she's been trying to act normal. Afterwards she preens herself as best she can. I'm trying not to have too much hope, but she's showing interest in normal...

    Ducks injured by raccoon

    My duck is still alive. She's drinking but not eating. I've been giving her aspirin dissolved in water and am about to try using a syringe to put some food and electrolytes in her water. I went out and got a bunch of wound care products that are duck safe. Fingers crossed that she recovers. I...

    Ducks injured by raccoon

    Thank you so much. I cleaned the wounds and applied antibiotic ointment. She is in a big tupperware container with some water and Electrolytes. She drank a little it but doesn't want to move her head much.

    Again, thank you so much. Your input is really valuable. Not only are you helping me in my class, but your input is also influencing decisions I'll be making with my own flock of ducks and other fowl I'll own.
