Help!!! I have no local Avian Vet

[lbunkie]

My sweet Daisy is having some weird things happening to her. Every Vet assistant that answered the phone including "My Vet" chuckled at my requests. No one handles Ducks and if I'd known that, I'd never Gotten my sweet babies.
She is close to 3 months and Wednesday of this week she had a very bloody eye, she was moon walking with her head down, her beak clicking like dried Popsicle sticks.
I did put them back in their own run again but last night when I went to lock them up, she was under the Chicken coop acting up again.
Help

No one euthanizes Ducks

Do you think one of your chickens pecked her eye? other symptoms? wash her eye out with warm water and some salt mix it real well before rinsing her eye. If you can get some Veterycin spray for wounds and infections it can be safely used in the eyes.

Ducks have an ability to heal themselves over time so try not to worry too much. I would wash out her eye like suggested above and take it from there. The most important thing is to prevent infection. Ducks can adjust to having no or low vision in an eye.

Try looking up "exotic vets" or "bird and animal hospital" you might find something around you after all. It's terrible that those vets laughed at you.

I will try all of that. I'm in Rural OK, I live between 2 towns, 400 pop. East of me and at least 50 pop. West of me (they have an actual post office). I literally located one about 2 hrs from me. Luckly I have a very close friend who is a vet and she referred everything to her colleague. Thank you all, she is doing a lot better and so is her eye. I love my Pekin Club
