Kroshka is still rocking on. Daily laying. Running about happy as Larry with her pals. Swelling going down! Lauries the vets ( avian specialist in falkirk ) think this may pass naturally, they can do the drain thing but prefer not to introduce any points of infection. They have suggested we monitor her an see how it goes.  They also said if it gets worse they can implant a chip ( not delvosteron ) cant remember proper name ( started with the word super- )

So......

a month now since the bother with Kroshka. She is still her cheeky self. swelling going down slowly. been laying up until a few days ago, now they have all stopped laying, We think they are preparing to molt. If so this might not be a bad thing as it will give her body a break.

Sounds very encouraging!
Maybe Kroshka will recover - a duck is maybe (probably?) more resilient than a hybrid laying hen.
Fingers crossed for you!
