duck sick

[HayleyCrum]

What are her symptoms and how long has this been going on? And how is she doing now?
Have you felt her crop yet, ducks can't throw up, so the "throwing up" is likely being caused by some sort of crop issue.
How much is your duck eating and drinking now?

I'm tagging in some, more knowledgeable members hopefully they can help soon and give you some good insight and info on what is or might be wrong with your duck.

I hope she will be alright, Good luck! I'll try and find some threads here on BYC that may be of help to you.

she seems to be doing better but still not to her potential she keeps making weird motions with her head

I wonder if she swallowed something she shouldn't have or got into something toxic/poisonous.

Is it possible she ate something she shouldn't have?

How old is she? Sounds like she could potentially be having trouble laying. I don't know if that would explain the "throwing up" though. Like @AngelinaThePekin8 said that's usually more indicative of a crop issue. Have you tried feeling her crop to see how it feels?

Otherwise, it sounds like she ate something she probably shouldn't have. I would look into getting one of these flushes ready if you think that's the case.

Can you get a video of the movement. She could have swallowed something wrong and she might be trying to get it out of her throat. If it's a crop issue she could be trying to adjust her crop or something to that effect.

she just pooped and acted a little better after that, she went away to do it though almost like she was going to lay but just white poop cane out. she is acting like she is hoarse though and cant quack so i dont know

There are several possiblities that could be going on. She could be impacted. Her crop would likely feel hard and would not go down in size over night. How does her crop feel?

She could have eaten something toxic. Some ducks have eaten something as simple as a screw or nail.

Also she could be having laying issues that could be causing her system to be blocked up. The often stop eating if this occurs. Does she have access to calcium in the from of oyster shells or layer feed?

what is her crop? Should i be worried that she will pass away over night is my concern. I wanna know she will be there when i wake up. I think she might be having laying issues because when i found her she was laying where she lays her eggs. she is wasdling weird and not eating as you stated. the only other symptom she has is throwing up which she hasnt done in a while.
