I well imagine whether it's a duck or a chicken that is egg-bound, the procedures are the same to give them relief...here's a great page:

I realize your question is directed towards ducks, but this should help you...best of luck and keep us updated!

If she were mine I would check inside her vent for an egg. If I found an egg I would give her some calcium (100mg per 2.2 pounds), fill my bathroom with steam and leave her in there for several hours or until the egg passed. Is she strong enough that you could put her in a tub of warm water? Or is she so weak she might drown? If she is that weak she needs to see a vet, ASAP!
