Please help my duck is very sick

Calcium Gluconate for egg binding. Even tums will work if getting cal glu isn't something you can get today.

The little white poo is cause she isn’t eating feed and only meal worms
I had this happen with my drake
He wasn’t plugged or egg bound of course
He was depressed being away from his mate. So he wouldn’t eat feed
In your ducks case I really think she has an egg stuck
Remove the meal worms
Try the warm baths and get her some calcium

Unfortunately no she didn’t. She passed away peacefully with her best friend

So sorry

I'm sorry for your loss

I’m so sorry that she passed. It’s always so tough but from reading through this thread, it sounds like you did everything you could, and that you were able to make her as comfortable as possible.

Ugh, I'm so sorry to hear that! But im glad it was peaceful and with her best friend!! I had a duck that had very similar symptoms, which I now realize could be soooo many things, and I ended up having her put to sleep. So heartbreaking, because my five(now four) duckies are such a big(and accidental!) part of my life! It's exhausting to love a duck, or any bird, and have it fall ill... there really isn't many medical resources out there! I'm very thankful for BYC!!
