I think I’ve heard olive oil helps flush their system? I’m not sure how much to give or if that would help in this situation. Maybe someone can give a second opinion on that. I know this was an accident but I’d try really hard to keep anything that they can get to that would hurt them put up because they’ll try to eat and chew on everything lol. And their lungs a very sensitive to smoke so try not to have that around them

Did your duckling eat cigarette ash, a hot ember or a cigarette butt?

Why did you have cigarette ash around a duckling? They will eat anything they can get their bills on! I would use olive oil too! You need to keep a really close eye on him\ her! And give it water!

If it was really just a piece of ash, I would think that there would be no harm done. A hot ember from a cigarette would be of concern.

Someone was smoking and might've thrown it and I didn't see it until it ate it

Obviously you are talking about a cigarette butt, there is a big difference.

Oh ok! I hope she's okay why do people do that? In someone's property!

Probably a cigarette butt cause it was morning and I made them walk outside but it's not a hot ember and I saw it's not really smoking

Nothing. They eat ash and dirt off the ground as it is.
