I have no idea if it will help, but it won't hurt. Unlikely to calm him down.I will pick some up tomorrow! What will this help with? Will it calm him?
Very unusual.Gotcha.
But it’s agreed that this is unusual right?
Does he always turn the same direction or does he switch up? Do you think his preen gland is irritating him?
When one of my ducks had an irritated and protruding vent (not yet prolapsed), my avian vet recommended that I dab some Preparation H on it to help reduce swelling and to numb it so she would leave it alone. I don't know whether that might give some relief. You could check with your vet.
I hope he gets better and it isn't anything horrible. The poor thingHi everyone. I’m very concerned about my duck. He has been chasing his back tail all day. Due to this behavior I took him to the vet. Here’s what we know. X-Rays, bloodwork, and Fecal exams all came back good. The Doc says that he may have soft tissue damage near his preen gland (hence all the tests). So he’s received some pain meds and we’re keeping a close eye on him. But I do not feel better. It’s been several hours since the vet and he has not stopped going in circles. His sister who is a peeking is very concerned and so are we. Any ideas which could make a duck constantly go in circles trying to get at his tale, similar to a dog going for its tail? We have him and his sister inside as per the vets recommendation, but he still hasn’t stop. I’m overly worried about him. I’m unsure how links work but I’ve posted a video on the behavior. I’m truly hoping someone will know since the vet really did nothing to stop my worrying.

He turns in both directions. The vet saw no signs of an irritated preen gland. Will check with Vet about the PH! It is a good idea!
