Constipated duck / possible blockage? He looks like he's dying

I have a duck named Goose who is normally very sociable and active but as of the last two days he has kept to himself. He has been quivering at times, moving his beak more than often, and seems slightly clumsier. Usually he poops at least once every 30 minutes but I haven't seen him go for two days straight. I've actually had the chance to watch him for hours on end these two days and so I definitely would have seen him poop by now. There are wood chips near his coop that I suspect he might have eaten and caused a blockage. What remedies could I give him? I've already tried molasses, vegetable oil, and I inspected his butt for blockage (didn't see any).

I am very worried that he won't make it another day for me to take him to the vet so any suggestions would be more than appreciated.

Thank you!

Please help! He's rock-hard bloated and is shaking all over. He is repeatedly closing his eyes like he's on the verge of sleep and looks very confused. I am going to take him to the vet first thing tomorrow at 8am but he looks like he's ready to go any minute now.

Any suggestions or any words of encouragement would really make me stress out less.
