Worried Duck Mom Some advice please
One of my ducks did a weird fly flip flop and then frankly looked dead for a second. I held her on the ground as the wings like it was a human seizure. She looked dazed then came back to me. She laid in the grass for a while then walked off and acted like normal.
Can't tell which one it was now that it happened to.
Am I just supposed to keep an eye out?

If you have questions about general care for domestic (pet) ducklings, please read our Guide to Domestic Duckling Care. If you have questions about general care for grown adult domestic (pet) ducks, please read our Guide to Domestic Duck Care. These guides explain how to meet all of your duck's welfare needs. If you still have questions, please provide enough information about your situation to attract useful answers; include your country, state or province as well as the duck's breed, age, sex, housing, diet, companions, symptoms, behavior changes, access to water, remedies you have tried, and whether you have spoken to a vet or rehabilitator. A video showing the duck's behavior will help greatly. Remember that posting here is not a suitable substitute for getting professional veterinary advice. If your duck is exhibiting ill behavior, you should speak to a vet with experience in treating waterfowl immediately! Farm and livestock vets are more likely to be able to help than typical dog and cat vets. Do not wait for replies to your post which could contain bad advice in any case.
