I’m trying to administer calcium gluconate to my egg bound duck. I’ve never done this before, and I’m wondering if anyone has some tips/ suggestions on how to give it to her?

It can be given orally.Hi, I have the Durvet Calcium Gluconate 23% that I recently purchased online and it states that it has to be administered intravenously or intraperitoneally. Is it possible to administer it as an oral treatment? Or should I look for a different product that can be administered orally??
I have an egg bound duck and am trying my best to help her. Any suggestions and advice on whether I can use this calcium Gluconate or if I need a different product are appreciated.
Thank you!It can be given orally.
Thank you!@Isaac 0 I have the same stuff and gave it orally for my duck who was laying weird soft-shell eggs.
Draw 1ml into a syringe, stick the syringe down the right side of "her" mouth, and press the plunger.
