Little girl not feeling well. Any ideas?

After I took that video I picked her up and checked her all over and then put her down. This was before she laid back down. Her neck and back look as usual. I guess I'll just wait it out..

Had she been eating normally? When one of my ducks got her leg injured, she stopped eating much. She couldn't hold her neck up much after a while. Looking back on it, I know now that it was the lack of nutrients and she needed tube feeding.

She was until today. I'll see if I can get her to eat in the morning if she doesn't do it on her own.
 
That is good that she was eating before. If you don't have tube feeding supplies, I recommend having it on hand. They can sometimes be hard to acquire and you usually need it sooner than it can be acquired. You hope to never need it, but worth it to have on hand if you ever do. I really hope she doesn't get to that point, but with her current disabilities I could see it as a possiblity.
 
Now that is a possibility that she sprained something jumping from the pool in a hurry. Hopefully just a couple days rest will have her back good as new. One thing about the B complex it also supports muscles when injured. So even if your not treating a niacin deficiency it can help just over all.
It is a very good idea to have the feeding equipment in your med kit.
Hopefully you'll not need it for Wednesday but always good to be prepared.
 
She's a very pretty muscovy. She looks very healthy too. Hopefully with rest, she will be back to normal.
Once one of mine sprained his ankle doing a muscovy trick (who knows what :wee) after a few days he was back to normal.
Thank you ❤️
I obsess over them lol
They have all been healthy, even my chickens and guineas. I've been really blessed to not have anyone get sick or injured until now.
 
Around midnight she ate a little bit of food but doesn't seem interested this morning. Everyone else went out into the yard but she stayed. I'm going to try to get her to eat something with the B complex. Sardines? Brown rice?

Thanks ladies! You are all extremely helpful!!
