Drunk acting goose

[Horseman97]

I have a 1 1/2 year old good who can’t stand, falls forward if she does, and uses wings for balance. I wanted to try activated charcoal in case she got into something toxic. I have 260 mg capsules how can I mix with water to give immediately

Capsules are easy to give. I give them to my dog for his allergies. Just cut the tip of the clear end of the capsule and then pour the powered content's out. I mix it in a bit of moist food, and then let him eat it. I would imagine that it would work with your duck that way.

You can also just push the capsule down their throat but make sure she gets plenty of water.

loss of balance is a serious issue, if she swallowed lead or zinc the activated charcoal will help but it won’t solve the issue, she will need to be seen by a vet and be put on CaEDTA if she has.

There are also other causes, like botulism or some sort of injury to the nervous system, how long has she had these symptoms?
