Help! Duck not eating...

[Knighstar679]

Males usually have a yellowish Bill in most breeds. So it might be a normal thing. Have you tried live mealworms, worms, or small goldfish?

He loves live worms, that’s a great idea! Thank goodness for all of the helpful people on this site! I will get some tomorrow. Also I will tube feed him if he won’t take the worms. I don’t want to lose him.

I would try live mealworms too. He might like those. If you get them from a place that sells reptile stuff they usually have stuff they eat that loads protein and such.

So I thought I would give an update on my duck that wasn’t eating. He is eating now! I believe it was a hormonal change. He was very aggressive with me, or should I say my feet, he has calmed down a bit, and started to nibble a bit on the crumble. Today he ate quite a bit! I am so relieved! Now I know, and can breath again! Thank you to everyone who respond, it is good to be able to chat with others whom have more knowledge than me.
