    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Final update: he passed away last night. It was just too cold for him to handle and the pain was too much. I’ve been having fears that the Layena I use may have an impact on their health, since the same duck had cancer and died back in October. They used to be healthy ducks, and it could just...

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Update, he’s still alive, but the tumor’s big. It’s depressing to watch but he’s eating and socializing as much as he usually does. Still, I wish i could do something

    This mostly goes out to anyone raising animals. When you have had an animal in this situation, what do you do?

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    What do you guys suppose I do at this stage. He’s still eating and drinking but he looks miserable. I want to keep him around but I fear he’s just suffering too much

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    We may check him in, but again at this state i’m just not sure. Sorry I blew up I just am running out of options.

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    I’m we got it checked under an xray, it’s cancer. We assumed it was a broken wing but it’s a mass that’s been growing under his skin. He’s now too sluggish to get out of the pen and his wing constantly hangs out. It’s pitiful, but I want to at least make sure he’s not suffering for his last few...

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Please for the love of god someone respond. No where on the internet is giving me a direction and he’s suffering. I don’t know if I can save him or not and it’s torture seeing him like this.

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Another update. He’s more distant from the ducks, even moreso than ever. Sleeps a lot more, won’t quack at all. Wing is constantly dragging behind and won’t even leave the pen. I don’t know how much longer he has

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    This isn’t something I want to post, but at what point would be the best time to put him down? He’s having a hard time cleaning himself now, and its clear he’s only going to get worse from here. At the very least I’d want to just know he’s okay. He’s been receiving painkillers and VetRx daily...

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Is there anything else I could do to worsen the effects of the tumor? He looks miserable walking around with it and his wing droops to the ground.

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Update: it’s cancer likely The vet found some kind of mass in his joint, and when poked, it was sticky. That’s likely what was causing the wing issues, and by proxy the coughing. Unfortunately, I don’t know what else there is to do for him. His shoulder is swollen, but at the very least he’s...

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    he sounds congested, and he’s been separated from the flock, albeit with another duck nearby. He’s also been eating and drinking. I can try and send a video of him coughing but it’s on and off. I may bring him inside, but i’ll have to update on that

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Update: He stopped coughing for a while, but now his coughing is much worse. It rained this morning, and now he won’t stop hacking. His quacks are normal, but his left wing still hasn’t recovered either. Is there anything else I can do to help alleviate his issues?

    Duck coughing, unable to lift left wing.

    Hi, so I’ve been handling a Black Swedish for 8 years, who’s suddenly suffering some kind of wing injury and is coughing a LOT. He never had angel wing, but struggles to keep his wings in his down, which I recognize is a stress issue. I understand he is old, and in fact recently lost his...
