Anyone familiar with Muscovy illness ... I have female off food now 4 days but drinking water. Seems lethargic and this morning I took her from pond as she was soaking wet. Poop is greenish, eyes and nostrils clear. Her mate is fine. She basically rests all day. Legs seem weak this morning any help appreciated.
 
Sounds like she could have ingested something toxic.

Perhaps @Miss Lydia has some Muscovy-specific advice.

I would consider a charcoal slurry, and get her to a vet if at all possible.

Since it has been four days, I don't think the flushes would be as effective.

You may also need to tube feed her - @casportpony has some good information there.

Yes most likely toxic. She died this morning and we are devastated
 
Oh, no.
