Duck acting strangely
I have probiotics and they love it. I give them Brewers yeast now too. It could be an injury too as our drake is 18 weeks and quite full of hormones. She was also trapped in brush last week. She didn’t seem hurt, but you never know. We had cut down a tree and hadn’t cleaned it up yet. I’m... -

Her crop is empty in the morning. I’ll have to see what ducks can take to sooth. She did put a tube down her. -

She does preen. She seems better in the pool. My husband has a theory. Not sure if it’s true or not. She seems fine in the morning when we open their house. As the day goes on she seems worse. He thinks it was her crop and the blockage was flushed out by the vet. He thinks her crop is... -

It was just panting and heavy. No noise. My husband examined her again. There is nothing palpable anywhere. It’s so odd. Hoping the Brewers Yeast perks her up. -

I don’t think so. There are 6 of them. I’d have to follow them around to isolate hers, and since the vet trip, we make her nervous. When she gets worked up, she starts to pant. I’m trying to keep her as calm as possible. Her poop was normal at the vet however. -

Thanks so much for posting it. She seems to be slowly improving but isn’t like her old feisty self -

I will try. I’m a Luddite too. Lol. If it shows up, I succeeded. -

No. She has periods where she briefly acts like the others, but then she’s hunched. She’s also gotten very quiet and has taken to being by herself. She used to be the boss duck. Now she’s a loner duck. -

It is just weird that she never walked around like that till Wednesday. Perhaps they act that was as they get older? -

She walks and sits with her head like this photo. She is able to pick it up, but doesn’t. Real new to ducks. Started them all on Brewers Yeast -

Any input is valuable, and I thank you all. The pictures posted above are great. Beautiful birds. We are starting all of the ducks on B vitamins and niacin. That and keeping them cooler is what we are trying. I will read about other deficiencies also. -

I’m quite relieved that it’s only heat. They love watermelon. I’ll have to get them more! Thank you -

It has been in the 80’s and 90’s during the day and it falls into the 60’s at night. -

Hmmmm. I sure hope so. It’s just she never acted this way before. -

The vet really isn’t a farm animal vet. There are none here. She’s seen some birds and was willing to try. The duck hasn’t begun paying yet. My husband is good with his hands and he’s felt her all over and can’t feel anything. Her breathing was really odd the first two days and she was...
