I need help!! My duckling can hardly breath !!😭😭

[Duck mommy 2019]

Hello my name is Evelin and I have two ducklings I got them from tractor supply I’ve always wanted to have ducklings so I got 2. Like 5 days ago I had the heating lamp on top of their little plastic box and that made it caught fire but this never had happend to me! Like I was so scared that something happend I looked outside and I took the ducks out as fast as possible and I put them in a little pool that I got for them and they were safe. recently like 3 days ago my yellow duck has been having some problems to breathe she doesn’t make any noise or nothing she just wants to quack but it can’t and it is a little bit wheezing. I tried to give it 1 puff of my albuterol and she calms down but yet it happens again I have searched it up and I think it is smoke inhalation and I’ve also tried to call a vet but she just told me to put her in water. But that doesn’t help !!I don’t know what to do please help!!

omg i’m so sorry!!! is she ok?

Glad to hear! You can do it again if need be, she needs plenty of fresh air right now.

Just throwing the kitchen sink out there, are you sure she's a she? I had one I thought was a girl and that she had a dry throat and turns out she was a 'he'. It might just be a matter of coincidence?

hopefully she’s ok!

Oh yes thats not so good

Ive had chemical burns to my throat and lungs and smoke inhalation and it takes awhile to heal. Do you think she was actualy exposed to it that much?

I wish i could help more, all i can suggest is this product by green goo, tractor supply should have it, i have uses it on alot of birds View attachment 2067463

Hello again and yes I think that she was exposed a lot because my other ducking that was with her he’s fine and he’s the one that’s quacking right now and does greengoo really help?

That always a good sign if they have a good appetite so hopefully she’ll get her voice back soon.

Not really but I keep checking on her but she kinda okay

 

[Evelinvalles]

Is there any way you can get her to a vet? Steam may help reduce upper airway irritation and to help to her breathe, Could you set her in a hot shower(Not under the water) for a while and see if that helps. I'm totally inexperienced with toxicology care, much of my information is coming off the internet.

yes i took her and they just told m what you just commented and I keep on doing that but she’s kinda breathing better also I bought and vapormachine and I just sit there with her but she’s doing a little better now
