You might get a faster response if you put this in the emergency section.

There was a post recently about a rooster who was attacked by a raccoon. The owner thought his eye was gone, but it turns out that it was only injured. The area was just so swollen and nasty that it looked like it was gone. That could be the case with your duck!

Stormy Autumn you're talking about my boy. Here are his posts: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=512448 and https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=528182

I separated him and treated him with Penicillin to help prevent infection. A person on the first thread links to very good instruction on how to do so. I hope your boy will be okay
