While I was in the barn getting hay for the horses something attacked my duck.
It happened within 10-15 minutes, that is how long it took me to get back outside to find my duck on his back with a patch of skin peeled away from his chest, and then found a hunk of feathers pulled from his tail end.
I thought he was dead at first, but he is not. His wings are not broken nor are his legs.....I want to try and save him.
What can I NOT put on his wounds?
I remember reading that there is something in common antibiotics cream that is toxic, I need to know what that is asap.
I have plenty of ointment for horses and and just afraid to use anything.
I am trying to search and am coming up empty handed.....I will continue to still search here but if anyone has the link to the what to and what NOT to do for duck wounds I;d be greatly appreciated!
And if anyone wants to send along well wished to Benjamin please do so....I am afraid he might need it!
