Tomato plant might have been eaten?

So we found that tomato plants (stems, leaves) are toxic to ducks and geese. Our two geese (eager plant eaters) just died from what we suspect is eating tomato plants. I know that ducks tend to go for bugs rather than plants, but my little girl (Warrior the duck) was exposed to tomato plants as well and I'm worried she could have eaten some.

Should I try to get them out of her system, just in case she did? How would I do that? How do you get a duck's digestive system to speed up? What should I do for her?
 
Generally birds don't eat things that are poisonous unless they have nothing else to eat. Unless you saw this bird consuming a lot of tomato leaves I wouldn't think it was that. Tomato plants don't really taste good. I would think something else killed your birds. I routinely throw spent tomato plants to my birds so they can eat the tomatoes, but my birds are free ranging.
