Healing thoughts please

 :'( :'( :'(


Daffyd the wonder duck is very poorly :'(
Rat killing muscovy extrordinaire has had a run in with the fox. He has survived but is quite a poorly boy.


Any spare thoughts would be much appreciated, I love that duck like my dogs :love: :love:

Healing thoughts on their way
 
If you have any Bach's Rescue Remedy you could try putting some drops in his water, or if he is very tame a few drops into his beak, or mix some drops with water in a hand held sprayer and then misted over his bill and face might help.
 
I have had birds survive traumatic fox injuries so give him time and quiet to get over things

Tell him how lucky he was to escape.  The rescue remedy might work.  I lost all my lovely p[et ducks and 10 of my 11 hens to a fox just a few weeks ago.  I hate foxes.
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

 :hug: The fact he's still with you is a good sign - hopefully he'll fight if you give him time and space. One of my cats had a run in with a car last year which normally only goes one way but was absolutely fine after a few days of vet care.

Where are you? I went in to pay my vet bill today and they had a call about a duck coming in while I was there - now that really would be a small world story.

I'm near Glastonbury, but it wouldn't have been me, Daffyd was far too stressed to be transported so I chose to let him heal or pass in peace if he chose not to fight. He is still fighting  :excited:

Good to hear he's still fighting, those first few hours are often the critical ones, so he sounds as though he may survive to fight another day  :thumbsup:  :&>

Just caught up with this - sending all possible good wishes and healing vibes to Daffyd  :love: :&> and  :hug: to you  :-*

I quite understand loving a Muscovy like a dog; they're such big beautiful characters, and seem to interact with their humans in a way other ducks don't.  Fight on, Daffyd. :love: :&>
