    Duck with Breathing problems

    Feed and treats look good. How long has the duckling been breathing like this? any discharge from nares or eyes? How is your chicken that was having problems? does your duck cough?

    Duck with Breathing problems

    Your rescue looks so much better I am glad to hear he recovered. As for your 7-week-old what do you feed and are you giving treats and supplements? usually, mouth breathing is from being too warm but can also mean respiratory illness. Is the ducking eating your dog's food. My ducks love dry...

    You could try once to see if you notice any difference in how he acts. If it doesn’t seem to help don’t use it.

    This is one way of keeping them from jumping off the sides too. These Xpens are great for so many things related to our birds.

    Duck with Breathing problems

    That is great news!! he needs a way to safely get into the pool a ramp or steps made out of scrap wood would work. But it would be better for his legs not to have to jump off the side. The reason saying is my Muscovy drake injured his legs jumping off the side of the pool so best to keep that...

Of course if the dog grabbed him his body is most likely very sore but the only thing I can think of to get him to eat is tube feeding we have info if you want to try but you'll...

    Hopefully just giving him time he will recover. It is very special that you're caring for him even though he is feral.
