Saw one of my ducks not eating and acting weird this morning, appears unable to quack even though she is trying to. Walking slow and acting a bit dazed. Lumpy abdomen. Pic related pasty butt. Gave her calcium gluconate when i got home from church today and put her in a warm Epsom bath. Watching her right now. Thoughts?
 
Here is a picture of the backside. She also appears to be trying to poop/lay an egg with no luck

Honestly I think she just died. Started twisting around super weird for a few minutes now totally limp. Just bathed her for an hour and then rubbed her bottom for the second half hour and it happened right after moving her to a dry place.
 
Just going to bury her and see if i can buy a replacement from the same place that i bought her. Wish I knew what killed her. if anyone has a suspicion let me know.

Is that big scab looking area where her poop comes out or is that a sore/scab on her belly?

What were you feeding her?
