Duck Emergency

[Eggcessive]

A warm soak in a shallow tub may help to relax her enough to lay if there is an egg, but I would keep trying to shrink the tissue with honey, sugar, or Preparation H, and push it back in while holding it in as long as you can.

Its a lot easier to push back in compared to a few days ago, but part of the mystery round thing is crusty at the top. She is going threw a hard core molt too. Later today I'm trying the honey to hopefully make it smaller. She still seems to be a very happy ducky.

Was that her in the tub? If so, she needs to bathe in clean water or there is a very good chance that her prolapse will get infected.

The water was clean before I put her in but you know how ducks are.
I tried everything with the honey and all the other stuff but nothing is working and now it might be infected, most likely she's going back to the farm to get treatment and if that doesn't work then we have a vet nearby.

If you wait much longer it will be too late. Heck, might be too late already, so I'd go to the vet now if that's an option.

The bird specialist isn't back until Monday, But I bought a special spray to take care of the infection

Do you have an appointment for Monday?

It's always best to start your own thread so there won't be confusion and you will get morehelp. Amprollium is the best drug for treatment of coccidiosis, and it is called many names depending on your country. Sulfadimethoxine and toltrazuril are also commonly used for treatment.
