I have batam roosters and my neighbor put out rat poison and one ate it and got real docile. I went to my neighborhood pet store and got antibiotic for birds . you put it in there water, I brought him inside warmed him up feed him and he drank that water for 2 days a year later that boy is crowing in my back yard right now.
However i have new muscovy ducklings (teenagers) and the female was limping yesterday and didnt wanna move or walk, So i brought her in side with her mate and put her in the tub with warm water and epson salt for a hour than took her to an inside pen, she didnt eat or drink till i brought her boy in with her and then they ate and sleep thru the night. this morning i took the pen out side and opened it and she followed her boy out but only sat around the yard all day. so we just brought them back in for the night and they are back in a tub of hot epson salt water for an hour then i feed them and they will stay inside together.
am i doing the right thing for my girl (spice)????? I love her and saved her from being someones duck dinner at a live action. sugar her mate would be devastated if we lose her.
