I gave him a bath last night before soaking his feet.  He absolutely loved it he was diving down flapping his wings plunging head down.  Totally lifted his spirits up.  After soaking his feet and wrapping.  I put him in a clean pen and he was having fun cleaning himself.  Was a very happy duck.

Thank you I wouldn't known what to do and for sure the best path for his recovery with out all the help and advice I have been given.

The neighbor must read this forum

as I didn't see any farm animals on her property as of yesterday, not even the geese. I did talk to another neighbor and he stated he saw a white duck by his place early last week, and didn't think it was the same one I picked up. So I will drive the other way on the main road and look for it.

The original people who purchased the ducks lived down the street. They listed their house and moved away last July. I came across lots of ducks on the road in Sept ?and called the realtor who told me no one was taking of the ducks, she has brought them some bread. I brought food and helped the realtor to catch the ducks. She asked if I knew anyone who would take them I suggest my neighbor. Well the neighbor I suggested, turns out to not feed them also, she free ranges her birds. I feel really bad for the bad beginnings for theses ducks which were a spring hatch. The neighbor who took them bought another farm and has been moving, and seems to begone now. Farm not listed yet. Her cows most likely butchered left a few days ago, and the rest of her birds seem gone as of yesterday.
