One of our khaki Campbell ducks did not show up for roll call tonight. My hubby finally found her in some underbrush in the neighbor's pasture. She had a pencil eraser sized glob of white goo in her eye when he found her. But what alarms me the most is that her tummy seems larger than normal and is soft and squishy. I'm not sure if the eye and tummy are related or not. Yesterday she seemed just fine. We always do roll call at night - we have 28 ducks. As far as I know, no one else seems sick. She is being very calm and docile. Not making much noise. We stuck her in the tub for a bit while we could get a kennel ready for her and she seemed to clean the goop out of her eye. I've tried searching on soft squishy duck belly - I didn't find much. I found people asking if the belly was hard or squishy but no explanations of what a squishy belly means - what is wrong with my duck?
