**UPDATE** Finally got an update from the blood work, Justice has a really bad infection. Her white blood cell count is over 30K which is extremely high. Yesterday, the vet gave her a shot of Doxycycline and she will probably have 2 more rounds. Today she is a little lethargic and hasn't eaten a...
I took Justice to the emergency vet this morning and I am still waiting to hear from the vet. Fingers crossed!! She was really vocal when I dropped her off, so that’s a good sign I think. Lol
Definitely for me would be the ease of cleaning. Currently we have ducks and cleaning their house is a chore. Anything to make that process easier is a selling advantage for us.
I'm super nervous about giving it to her directly. But maybe my husband feels more comfortable doing it. Thank you so much for all of your help. I really appreciate this group! :love
I started her on that yesterday and just gave her more, but I only gave 1/2 ml for all 3 of them. Maybe I should try to give just her something else?! The other girls get so excited and I hate leaving them out.
Did she get better? I am having the same problem with my 2 month old girl. She’s been eating, drinking and pooping without any issues, but her stumbling seems to be getting worse. It’s been 5 days now, I’ve tried everything every one has suggested. There’s no vet around that see ducks.
There is a rhododendron bush near their pen, and in the neighbors yard behind their pen is a holly bush that they could have gotten into. But she only seems to have the uncoordinated symptoms above. My other duck has been coughing in the morning, but that’s it. I haven’t heard her cough or...
Okay, I will go and get some liquid Vit B as soon as I am off work today. I thought the poultry drench would have enough in there that i wouldn't have to get more since i also got niacin pills already and have been giving it to them daily for the last 2 days.
We give them the chic starter feed and give them fruits and vegetables and also let them forage in the backyard a few times a day. Since I read it might be a Niacin deficiency i got niacin tablets 250 mg that i split into 4. I have been crushing it and giving it to all of them in their peas, for...
Hello, I am a new duck mom, they are only 2 months old. Justice is acting like she drunk, she wobbles excessively and she bobs her head back-and-forth. She’s been losing your balance standing and while she tries to groom her self. She’s been eating and drinking just fine. This has been going on...
