Duck swallowed plastic

[Iownmuscovies]

hi I have a Muscovy duckling shes almost one month old, and she swallowed a big piece of really sharp plastic. Could she die?

Oh ... Sounds terrible
I would watch her very often and keep an eye on her.
I hope that plastic will not hurt its internal organs.
If you see that something is wrong with her, you should take her to medical treatment immediately.
In the past one of my geese swallowed a piece of Lego, but he was fine.
Let us know how she is doing...

It looked like she was really severely choking many hours after it was swallowed but she stopped when I gave her water

Just watch her. She may be fine.

Ever since she swallowed it she’s been pooping white like milk, only a few solid browns the rest have been completely white puddles

Only way to really know is an X-ray to see what's happening.

It would be best to contact a vet ASAP because a sharp piece of plastic could puncture her digestive tract (esophagus, crop, proventriculas, gizzard, intestines).

How does she feel?
She may have some kind of blockage. I think she should get medical treatment.
