Can ducks have a stroke?

Keeping her inside is what I would do. What does her poop look like?

I have her inside tonight, she is sleeping right now. Her poop looks normal to me, maybe a little watery but not much. No worms, etc...

Inner ear infection maybe?

How could I tell? Should I start on Antibiotics just in case?

Any chance you could post some pictures of her poop and a video of her walking?

Just an update. I did in fact bring her in the house tonight so I can keep her warm and also monitor her food and water and poop, etc.

She does not eat by herself I have to help her to eat by holding warm mushy food right under her bill, same with water.

I think she may not see me at all. She does hear, made a loud clap and she responded. Her pupils do dilate when a bright light is point into her eyes.

Here is a video of what she does with her head, this is basically continuously unless she is sleeping...

You asked... I noticed she just pooped a watery darker poop and then a watery white poop. I did just feed her some warm oatmeal with molasses and honey in it...

That does look okay. Any chance you can get her to a vet?

If she doesn't improve at all I was planning on it, but weekends are always hard here...

I think she is going blind... I say that because I have a duck who has been *mostly* blind her entire life and makes that same, constant motion, but mine is front to back instead of side to side...

Any cloudiness in her eye? Anything inside the pupil area?
