I seen him playin in the water a bit today but he didnt eat feed

I took him in put him in warm bath and held a bowl of corn nibblets in his face till he ate about a cup, Gave him a sigar cube, Dryed him and left him in the brooder in the basement for a few hours and sent him to bed.

He pooped larger today but i wouldnt say better

Do you have a place you could pick up some feeder fish? Maybe the entertainment would coax him to eat.
I remember another member who had a similar issue a while back with a duck not eating and pooping green. He got his duck to eat feeder fish. That was all she would eat for a few days. Eventually she pulled through.

Yes, that is concerning. I would worry about that too. I've never bought any for mine but I would like to.
It sometimes just seems like if you can just get them to start eating again they have a better chance.
Would you consider tube feeding him if it comes to that?

Thinking of regurgitating . . Maybe try making him a mash?
Oh. . I should mention that the person I spoke about before did take their duck to the vet and gave antibiotics too even though the vet couldn't really tell them what was wrong. So get the meds if at all possible.

Any news on nibbler?

Try buying night crawlers at the fish bait store. I gave them to Quackers when she was egg bound and not eating, they really perked her up.
