Duck with botulism! What to give

[2Gerootheducky]

Hi everyone my Pekin duck who is three years old can't walk, his legs can't move but he is quacking and is trying to move with his wings. We are worried its botulism and want to take immediate action. We are moving him to a warm and secluded area with fresh food and water. I don't know how much apetite he has since we're gonna feed him just now but I have past (very negative experiences). What antibiotics can I give her and in what doses? This is a huge emergency for us.

Update: It was not botulism. His leg got stuck with the wooden boards in the coop.

Is he ok?

Glad it's not botulism. Is he injured? Can you fix the boards so it doesn't happen again?

Hello. Just wondering if there are other ways to give ducks activated charcoal? Nervous to give it in a syringe because I don’t have to get any in it’s lungs. Can I just put some in food or a little bit of water?

Water is the best way to give it. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/flushes-for-aiding-in-toxin-removal.700526/
