White duck poop? Is it normal?

Just a little update on Dewey (this picture is from yesterday) she is the sweetest girl ever and even when she isn’t sick she enjoys sitting on her mom’s lap and is always smiling. We started tube feeding her today. We did pedialyte with baytril and niacin first and she pooped within like 10 minutes after that so we just gave her her first dose of tube feeding. We did 30ml to start off. She is trying to be in better spirits today. We are hoping and praying she pulls through. We don’t know what we are gonna do without our Dewey. She is a part of the family to everyone that meets her. Second picture is from her today. she is tucking her beak today instead of leaving her neck out

If they could only talk and tell us where they hurt. But they can't so we have to really guess by symptoms and they aren't always evident. Hopefully the Baytril and tube feeding will get her through.
I love that Pekins always have a smile on their faces. Please keep me updated. Dewy is precious

If she isn’t drinking enough water while we are tube feeding her, do we add in tube feeds of pedialyte too? Or is the tube feeding mixture enough liquid for now?

 

[Miss Lydia]

She doesn't have to be drinking water when your tube feeding . Maybe in between feedings tube some electrolyte water into her if she isn't drinking after tubing. Is she not drinking at all?

As of today she is really drinking at all. Maybe a sip or two in the pool

Then I would tube some electrolytes into her, you want her to stay hydrated. Go by the direction in the link as to how much to give her.

Okay. The directions say 14ml per pound and she is 6 pounds but we only have a 60ml syringe. We did a small amount earlier for the first time tube feeding.

Just use what you have the important thing is getting some liquid in her plus when you tube she is getting liquid too.
