Runner duck with yellowish color around eyes

I understand that concern. But when you're talking 1-2 Tablespoons ACV diluted with water, I think yes, the mixture will be very slightly acidic, but still, that would be a very very weak solution.

@HollyDuckFarmer Sure, you're right that wouldn't be too bad. I just wanted to be more confident about it so that I can keep it in my bag of tricks. Haha, now that I think about it, I've seen mine dip their heads in poop water, so ACV might be acidic but at least it's clean!!!

How about a rinse with saline solution?

I think that would also be appropriate, Altho seems like I did read that an extra step needs to happen before its ok for the eyes... Let me check on that.

ETA: Bottled, store bought saline is fine to use. I'm still checking on the other way...

Ok, here ya go! Thank yous to Miss Lydia & Amiga for providing this: http://chemistry.about.com/od/labrecipes/a/How-To-Make-Saline-Solution.htm
