Last night, my entire flock of ducks got attacked by an unknown animal. We have 3 survivors. 2 of them are severely injured and 1 of them is untouched. I have a Pekin duck and a Mallard duck. The Mallard is in more critical condition having a harder time eating, drinking and moving. Both of their necks are tucked and crooked and the Pekin can lift his neck a little bit but the Mallard cannot at all. I have them resting their necks/heads on a towel and i gave them both a warm bath and blow dried them. they only eat if the bowl of water+mealworms is put in front of them. They are resting in my bathroom with towels and a heater. I tried to use gauze and toilet paper rolls as a possible support for their necks and it didn't work at all. i think they have broken necks. the pekin more than the mallard have stuffy noses and are bringing up a lot of mucus and have congested sounding airways. they cannot move and i feel absolutely horrible about the whole situation. please help! i included some pictures of both of them.
