Chirping
I have a runner duck who is around 15 months old. I noticed a little over a week ago that her belly was looking distended. I was finally able to get someone to help today with draining her abdomen and this is what I pulled from her. It's watery and dark brown with a very slight green tinge to it. There doesn't seem to be any cloudiness, and there is no smell. I was getting these small clot like things out with the fluid. I ended up drawing around 110 cc's and stopped there because I didn't want to put her into shock.
Does anyone here have any experience with acsites being this color and what it could mean? I don't believe there is internal laying or infection. If it was due to a heart condition I think it would be the normal golden straw color that I've read about. I'm trying to assess what direction I want to go with either treating or euthanizing her. I do have her separated in a clean, comfy corner of the coop with food and water so she can rest and hopefully let her belly continue to drain.
