2 to 3 day old duckling with swollen belly , hasnt pooped in roughly 12 to 24 hours.

Was very energetic last night , I didnt notice the swollen belly till this morning, it's not moving much and lays on its side . Picture from last night and I'll post one from today . I sat her I warm epsinsalt water it has coconut oil in it . But I have no idea what do. I've never lost a duckling before. We did find her in a nest abandoned. Thought it was her legs. Any advice will help .

I’m not sure what you should do but I can tag a couple of people that might be able to help you. Best of luck to you and the duckling.

@Miss Lydia or @Isaac 0 could either of you be of assistance?

I'm the kind of person who can't just leave a wild animal abandoned. I've raised a couple muscovy ducklings in the past one still visits for food. Lol . But with this one I'm more worried , hopeing it will be ok . But if not I pray it goes peacefully with out alot pain and suffering. After yesterday with her energy and all I got my Hope's up . Not sure what to do about her belly or if its butthole problem

I’m terribly sorry for your loss. I really wish the little duckling would have pulled through. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts still. Wishing good luck with the rest of your flock. It is always hard to lose one when you try so hard to keep it alive. Best wishes and condolences go out to you.
