Hi Everyone!

I'm new to this group, but I'm in need of some help/looking for advice. Last week I took my duck to the vet because she wasn't moving around much, didn't seem like herself, was all ruffled up, and had weird looking liquidy green poop. They did an x ray, but weren't sure what the issue seemed to be. The calcified pieces look like they're in the shape of an egg, but I was doing some research and wasn't sure if she had an impacted gizzard. I've tried giving her molasses and vegetable oil, as well as massaging this area as well, but she doesn't seem to be improving. She's not eating, but is drinking, and I'm not sure what else to do to help her. Her poop is still green as well. Has anyone else expe ollie poop.png rienced this? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

How old is your duck ?
What are you feeding it normally ?
Does it free range ? Do you supply grit ?
She’s 2 years old. She hasn’t been free range due to the bird flu in my area, but when she’s been in the yard someone’s been with her. She eats Sprout flock feed, but I’m thinking her diet needs to be changed
