Our 6 yr old peking duck Louie came out of the duck house like he was drunk this morning. He tripped anfell . I had to carry him to the pool. He is not eating and he has been visibly shaking at times. Could this be an electrolyte deficiency?

Welcome to BYC! Sorry your duck s not feeling well. Any chance yo can take him to a vet?
 
I live in the city in canada and its very hard to find support for waterfowl but we are looking for help thanks.
While you are looking for a vet I would suggest that you bring him inside where it's warm and provide water dish that he cannot drown in and fresh food.

What does his poop look like? Can you post pictures and video of him?
 
Thank you for your response! We have found a vet finally! And we agree that it could be a deficiency they eat peas and corn primarily. Usually we have them on grain from Mazuri but we haven't bought it for awhile . Think thats thats the problem?
