How do I fog a duckling?

Yes follow the directions on the Vet RX.
Oxine AH can be purchased online. It’s a little pricey, but what you do with it is first of all you do not get the activator. The activator is just for using it as a cleaning agent .
if you’re going to use it to help a duck who might have a fungal infection in their lungs, such as aspergillus., you are going to take 22 ounces of water and 2 tablespoons of the oxine to make a solution that you can put into a large spray bottle . and you can put a little of the solution in a nebulizer, you put your duck in a small dog crate with the nebulizer attached pointing the steam into the crate and put towels over the top., cover sides also ( towel) You leave it for 20 to 30 minutes. You do this two or three times a day.
You can also use the solution to spray a little mist of it above the heads of all your ducks chickens so they breathe a little and it helps prevent fungal infections, and you can mist over the bedding in the coop to keep the dust down that also helps with respiratoryissue prevention

But before you do, any treatment, make sure that you have water deep enough for your ducklings to dunk their entire bill and eyes into the water. This is how they clean out their NARES and their 👀 If your duckling is sneezing, it is most likely caused by not having deep enough, clean water or ,, dusty bedding. What are you using for bedding?
I use puppy pads. Got them a deeper water container yesterday. She seems to be doing fine but still sneezes a lot and isn’t quite as active as the gosling. She doesn’t peep a lot, but other than that, she acts like a regular duck. Thanks for all the help! Sorry for the late response!

Glad to hear she’s doing better!
You don’t want them to get their body soaked wet all the time from an open container - the trick is to have a lid with a hole or holes, cut out into it that allow them to stick their head in, but not their body ..and as they grow, you make the holes bigger. I have a few different size ones that I’ve used in the past here’s a picture. One of them is just an extra lid. It also really helps keep them from splashing the water all over the place to have a lid on there.
