Duck Respiratory Help

Ok, thank you. Silly question, how do I get it into her? Dissolve in water or just feed her the whole pill.

I prefer the direct method. Open mouth, insert pill.

Perfect, thank you so much. She's the one that likes to put everything in her mouth anyways.

How did giving her the pill go?

How did giving her the pill go?

She wasn't really a fan of me sticking my fingers in her mouth and trying to get a pill down her throat. She ended up biting my arm (beak pinch and twist) telling me to back off so I had to trick her into taking it. I made a few shell pasta noodles and slipped it inside the noodle and she gobbled it up. I know the carbs are bad for them but I didn't have a cup of dirt and worms on hand.

Giving it in pasta is perfectly fine.
