Gertrude swallowed a wrapper!

Gertrude swallowed a life savers wrapper! (Ironic...) Anything I can do for her? At all?

She's a Mallard, about a year and two months.

I don't know if you can do anything for her..How big was the wrapper? I wouldn't be worried. When my Cayuga was 8 weeks he swallowed a band aid! lol

Is Cayuga still alive? And it's about the size of a peppermint wrapper. A band aid? Seriously? How?

LOL Yeah, He's 20 weeks now and healthy There was a used ( gross lol ) band aid outside, I saw it but didn't think he'd eat it! Then I saw him put it in his mouth and before I could get it out he had already swallowed it! LOL

Just make sure Gertrude is still passing food, watch to see that there is no apparent swelling at the base of her neck or any sign of impaction. She will likely be okay. Sounds like she is outdoors a bit, so she is getting some kind of grit?
