We bought a duck for my kids for Easter. At the feed and seed store they just said it was a Easter duck. He has afro so my kids named him Mohawk. He was doing GREAT until about 3 weeks ago. He always had the best personality and would even come up in the yard, from the pond, to see us. He stopped quacking about 3 weeks ago, he still tries... but nothing comes out when he does. Then he stopped really eating. Yesterday I went down to the pond to try and feed him some worms and he acted like he was stuck in the mud at the edge of the pond so I tried to help him get unstuck. However, he wasn't stuck... he couldn't move! So - we brought him inside the house and put him in the bathtub with clean water and food. He has been eating his food but still can't really move. Today when I got home, I was going to clean out the tub and put fresh water in it. I kept seeing these little red worms that were about an inch long.
Has anybody ever seen this before? Mohawk is like our 3rd child and I want to do whatever I can to help him. The vets around my area will not see him because he is a duck... Any help to save my little girl would be appreciated! I'd hate for anything to happen to her. Expecially around Christmas!
