I am beside myself with worry. The grandbaby threw the nerf dart/bullet, and chased the duckling, as usual. The duckling managed to swallow it. My vet referred me to a place that has an avian vet. They want $150.00 to see the duck, and will need at lease 1 X-ray at $200.00, to evaluate, before they even start any type of treatment, or surgery. Starting price on surgery is $1,500.00. The hard end had been pulled off, so it's only the soft stuff. It went down longways, like a spaghetti noodle. I've been praying the duckling will break up, with the grit, and/or it will be able to pass it safely, and live. I had no idea it could swallow something that long. I've been mentally kicking myself. I will never again take that kind of a chance.
