Duckling breathing heavy.

[Spyderk117]

Hi, my 10 day old Call duckling is breathing really heavy, he's not hot. And he is falling his back.
I was reading and someone said it could be a heart defect.

What could be wrong?

K, I'm out now, so I can't copy from my book, but I noted some things that it could be, based on symptoms
