Help! Dying duckling! *solved*

[MochaDuck]

Update:
She does have a vent! I know because she just pooped on me. She perked up after she pooped, but isn't completely well. Her poop is watery.

Pictures of her and poop.

(Yes I know that's not an ideal setup, but it was the best of what we had when we found her since we didn't know there was a baby duck coming)

I’m happy you found the problem!

That was it?
She still acts weak.

I've got to ask, what temperature is it in the box?
I wonder if she's overheating?

I think between 80-90 F. I'll rearrange the themamator to check

Btw, I don't know if this helps, but her poop started out white and watery, and finished dark brown/black and solider. Here's a picture of what got stuck to her vent

It was at least 100 F. I moved the light back. Could that have been making her weak?

Edit:
More poop! Still acts weak.

Yes, it sounds like she was overheating.
You don't know how old she is, but I think I would see if she's comfortable at around 85F. Any way you can make more space, got a bigger box so she can move away from the heat?
Get her hydrated too, re-check her vent that it's not pasted over and see if she improves.

Perhaps, but I think she needs a vitamin boost. Got any niacin or Vit. B complex?? Give her some mealworms mixed with either of those and a bit of water to encourage the vitamins getting down. With her being weak, also try feeding scrambled chicken eggs immediately.

I really hope she makes it! I forgot to mention, hydro-hen or any other poultry electrolyte additive for the water would be a good idea as well. Please keep us updated.
