If it is a respiratory infection could Tylan 50 be used to treat it?
Sorry about your ducks Sam, I hope they will bounce back to their normal selves in no time.

If it's mycoplasma Tylan might help.

Maybe they meant gapeworms (Syngamus trachea), they live in the trachea.

Some capillary worms love in the esophagus.

I am so sorry did you look up flushes in case it's a toxin. Or are you really seeing respiratory?

Very sorry for your loss. Would you like to have her necropsied? If so I can help you find a place. New Jersey might be one of the states that offers low cost necropsies.
