My duck

I filled up the tub to where they float and she does use her feet but her sister is wayy more active.
I'd keep her comfortable tonight inside. and let her float as often as possible but don't keep her in the water just maybe 30 mins at a time so she doesn't wear out and stay with her. Do you notice her vent pulsing that is usually a sign they are trying to lay an egg. Did you get any calcium and if so is she drinking water with it in it?
 
Yes I notice the lower end pulsing but really lightly. She wiggles her tail often in the water but outside the water she seems to groom and relax. She stands up a bit even while cleaning but then lays down but if she tries to take a step she kinda falls forward slightly I'll try to record it.
 
I'm sorry yes I gave her half a tums in her water all crushed up. But she only takes sips. She hasn't dunked herself fully under water since this began 2 nights ago

Sips is okay but keep the water right in front of her so she keeps taking sips. I'd have crushed the whole tums up though she needs alot of calcium right now if she is egg bound. About all you can do now is wait, float and hope and pray she passes the egg if that is her problem. Just so you know this is very serious if she is actually egg bound. you could try massaging her tummy down towards her vent And see if that does anything to help.
 
One can also break the tums into pieces and put them in the mouth.

I also have had them inside for about two months now because a few storms have hit and tore there home down. I have been working on rebuilding. I don't know if not having much sun could also be a culprit??
