i know its too late now but green goo makes an awesome soothing product for breathing i use View attachment 2005928

Well I just rubbed a little PetRx near her. They said it's good for respiratory (was in chicken/duck section at Tractor Supply). She hasn't coughed since my last post, but if I lean down, I can hear her breathing real fast, very light wheeze. Each time I tried to give her water, it made her cough so I pulled back.

Yes, I beleive so. I just hate to go to bed & fall asleep if she needs me or anything, ya know?! When I 1st brought home my 1st ever set of ducklings, they were loud & happy & all over the place. When I woke up, the most energetic 1 was dead. So.... I guess I get nervous.

Yes, always clean fresh water available. Since they were born, shes always been the most "chill" one. She sits more than the rest, so I've been watching her closely to make sure there are no issues. She eats and drinks, just a little more lazier than the rest. I have them a boost of vitamins the day I noticed this thinking it might help, but I realized it was just her personality. Now, I'm wondering if shes ok?!

VetRx

The Vetrx Should help, If this was the first instance of her coughing and weezing hopefully it will pass, i wouldnt worry too much untill i seen mucus or it persisted another 12 hours

An upper respritory infection usualy comes with mucus and foamy eyes and weezing

I couldnt imagine mold being a problem, or moldy food. And i know you give lots of clean water thats deep enough to cover their eyes

I can tell you love ducks very much. Best wishes, I hope you and your ducks have a goodnight

Ooh, One last thing. I noticed a duckling of mine once would sneeze and have a fit after eating dry crumble, i started wetting it down to a mash and the sneezing stopped
