    My ducks were attacked by a fox.

    It looks like they are both eating some and drinking. I’ve watched her dip her head in the water several times. She’s still just laying a lot and I put the Neosporin on her head twice a day. I do have some electrolytes that I had for my baby chicks. Can I use it for my ducks?
