How old is she? How long has she been like this with the eye?

Do you have a vet in your area you could take her too? Not eating any food is very concerning.

We have been face timing our who is a vet but she lives far away. She said it may be pick eye but that was when we could see her eye now it is crusted over.

We had her two days ago from tractor supply so I do not know how old she is, but she came to us with a half crusted eye, and it was also clouded. But now we can not see her eye at all.

Do you have one near you? This duckling needs to be cared for ASAP.

Thank you so much but all of them are very far away from where I live. Did you see the picture I posted?

Can you gently try washing the eye with a warm damp cloth and see if you can get the eye open?

We are giving her a warm bath right now, to moisten her eye.
