Need help :(

i might post another picture later, but right now i'm letting her rest, also how do i flush her wounds without hurting her? i tried rinsing her wounds with water but she tried her best to avoid the water, anyways thank you for all the help

Saline would be better than water. If you don't have any, you can make some by boiling half a teaspoon of salt in one cup of water for fifteen minutes, and let cool. I often use a large syringe, or old dish soap bottle for lavaging, be copious about it, and try to dislodge any material in the wound. If she isn't cooperative try wrapping her in a towel as a restraint, and/or even better, asking for a helper to help hold her down.

You're more than welcome.

It’s night right now but the ducks are inside; here’s a close up of the serious injury, sorry if it’s hard to see with all the feathers.

Just checking in to see how your duck's doing.

They both seem to be doing well my mother made me take them out of the house so we let them go back in their coop and let them back in the yard during the day. They don’t have maggots but I’m still watching them just to be sure. Also the one with a hurt wings injury is just barely visible now so I think it’s almost healed. Anyways other than that nothings really changed

bad news. the one with the worse injery is weak, really weak it cant lift its head up. i think its because of the contant rainy weather when i let them out. always my family wont let me help it they say it can just die.

I am so sorry. Have you posted in our Emergency forums yet? https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures.10/ I would start a thread there if you already haven't.

apologize for not updated sooner. tragically, she passed when i was at school. I'm not going to lie i was really emotional... but the other is fine in other words, she is not alone after losing her sister for i have gotten her a juvenile runner duck. shes actually really attached to it which makes me happy as it might distract her from the loss of her sister
