ok
Our Jazzy, 9 month old Pekin duck was acting a little a listless then she got weak on her legs and then couldn't stand up. She didn't seem like she wanted to eat. Wasn't sure if she could see. For the last 2 hours just laid in her cage. We did notice that her beak turned a very pale cream color. After reading many posts we gave her some charcoal mixed with water and some Epsom salt. She farted loudly mostly liquid and in the last half an hour stood up and started eating and drinking and acting much more normal. Still a little wobbly on her feet. Her big seems to be changing back to an orange color . Any ideas? As a note we have had quite a lot of ladybugs in our house and read something about them being toxic.

We're so happy you've decided to join us
Hopefully what ever was in her system has cleared
Just for good measure, I'd add a tablespoon of canned pink salmon to her food morning and evening. It will give her a protein boost and its loaded with vitamins.
We are glad you joined our flock.
