HELP DUCK IN SHOCK I THINK

[Miss Lydia]

I would think so. Keep it nice and relaxing but watch to make sure he is able to keep afloat and keep his head up.

Good point to make sure he can hold his head up, in other words don't leave him alone in water deep enough to drown in. Hope he does enjoy a nice soak though. Poor fellow needs something to make him feel better. Hope it helps.

It's now been 24 hours since the accident and no change in Pablo. I am going to the store to buy him some minnows for his bath in hopes that will perk him up a bit.
I made him some eggs but I'm not sure if he ate any as they are on my floor now lol
I'm still pretty worried about this guy :-(

How did he do in the warm bath earlier? did that perk him up? Are you giving him and electrolytes or poultry vitamins? Poultry Nutri Drench is a really good one it can be given straight

I am having no luck he is doing worse in the bath today then yesterday I gout the pedia stuff and oatmeal. Bought feeder fish no interest.
He in now having a hard time hold his head up in bath. More lethargic.
Can I give the pedia stuff to him straight up?

Also giving him water from a dropper I don't think he's been in taking any even tho it looks like he is trying.

I'm afraid I am going to loose him. And I refuse to let him go out without a fight on both our behaves.

I'm sorry things aren't going better. You are doing all that you can. To me it sounds like he may have a neck injury not just shock at this point. The fact that his neck seems worse it what makes me think that. Hopefully he can pull through this but please take comfort in the fact that you are doing everything you can.

If its muscular time with help... You could give him a pain killer ( Advil is duck safe... Children's liquid Advil I think you can give 1.5 mills twice a day... )
Is a vet an option?
