My duck is sick and weak. She won't eat. When I approach her she hisses at me. We found a lump on her wing joint. It was warm to the touch. I have been administering antibiotics twice a day for the last 4 days and no change. Yesterday I force fed her a mixture of yogurt & honey, but only a few tablespoons. She is drinking a little. I put her water in a bowl with the ounces marked so I could see how much she is actually consuming. (approximately 16 oz overnight) Her poop is clear with just a little green in it.

I don't know if I am doing what is right. I need help. There no vet near me. The closest one is 2 hours away and across state lines. We are in a stay at home order and are advised not to go into other states. Please someone offer up some guidance and advice.

Unfortunately, my duck died this morning. I am sad that I couldn't help her.
