Miss Lady Luck the duck came to us barely able to move, severely under weight, dirty, smelly, and scared. I was severely bummed when I notice the tell tale diarrhea, limp neck, and eye issues that accompany Botulism but according to her previous owner she had been like that for four or five days so I knew she had a fighting spirit. After fighting Botulism for over a month she started to come around but it was apparent that there was another underlying issue when she was still unable to walk. After almost four total months of treatments with Brewer's yeast with Niacin, colloidal silver, baths three times a day, constant cage cleaning, keeping her inside to keep her warm, building her a custom small pen when it was time to move outside, keeping her water and food close to her all of the time to encourage her to eat more, and some plain old TLC ; I am happy to announce that Miss Lady Luck has made a full recovery and just has a slight limp. It was a long road that most people wouldn't travwrsd but totally worth it. She is a happy healthy girl and has integrated well into the flock.
