Hi, am new, have read for advice, however, finally got myself a login

. Have some backyard chooks and a couple of ducks...

Have lethargic duck, who I found staring into corner of run this afternoon. No apparent injuries, or trauma, however, I have sneaking suspicion a certain child or two chased him around a bit this afternoon

?!?! Could he just be a bit scared/shocked

His name is Mace, he has had a warm bath, is drying, warm and inside...

Is drinking some water with yoghurt and honey in it... Has drunk about 4/500ml in past 2 hours... Has had a mouthful or two of weetbix/oats mixed together...

I have some activated charcoal, will that hurt to try? What ratio should I give in water? In syringe?

What else?!

Thanks

Poor thing. He wouldn't be drinking like that if he were in shock. Since he can't talk, I wonder if you could persuade the child or two to say what they did to him? I wonder if they fed him something he shouldn't have.

You may want to post on the "Duck thread,"
