    Wobbly duck... Help!

    @Miss Lydia I haven't, because they don't seem to like the brewer's yeast (they wouldn't eat the food with the yeast in it). I was told by someone on BYC that nutritional yeast isn't as effective as brewers.

    Wobbly duck... Help!

    So it has been 12 days since I first started treatment for my little ducky, whom I have named Cash. He was on metacam once a day, and an antibiotic twice a day, as well as a tube feed to keep his nutrition up. The vet didnt know what it was. So now, 12 days later, and we're running out of meds...

    Wobbly duck... Help!

    Just got home from the vet. He isn't sure, but he feels confident that it's not botulism. We took an x-ray; no metal in his belly. He said that there are many things that it could be; including hepatic encephalitis...:( So, for the time being, we're treating with an abx, anti-inflammatory and...

    Wobbly duck... Help!

He is still having diarrhea, but there is much more fecal material than before, which tells me that he is eating better...

    Wobbly duck... Help!

    @mustangrooster I looked up other posts, and nothing quite fits.. He isn't paralyzed, he can walk, but not well, and loses his balance often. He definitely has been flapping his wings a lot, more than the normal amount of times. He injured one of his wings, I'm assuming by his rapid flapping...

    Wobbly duck... Help!

    He seems drunk. When you pick him up his neck is swirling around, and he tips over when he tries to prune under his wings. Could this be botulism? Heavy metal poisoning? I can't be the only duck owner to experience this...

    Wobbly duck... Help!

    Hi all, Boy am I glad that we're able to post to BYC again! I have been having an issue for about a week with one of my Pekins. He is about 2 months old, and out of nowhere has been having issues standing and walking. He can walk but a few steps and looks almost drunk. He has been eating well...
