Hello, I’m seeking advice for my female Pekin that was attacked by a bob cat. She was bitten on the neck, there isn’t any deep wounds. She seems to have protected herself well unlike my two that died. I took her a bath a couple of days after the attack, I rinsed the wound with saline, and then put iodine. A day or so after I continued using a spray pictured below everyday since and applied an ointment a couple times since the attack (a week ago). She drinks water but doesn’t seem to eat much. When she drinks though she is definitely pretty subtle when drinking. Her poop comes out liquidy, white/light green. She keeps her neck tucked in and just follows my other ducks around, doesn’t really graze like normal. I can tell she is obviously traumatized. However I am scared that maybe her neck can be broken or something along the lines or she is maybe just sore? I don’t know. Again this is my first set of ducks and this is the first that they ever been attacked/injured. Does anyone have any advice, tips, etc.?
