I now think she has a punctured lung as her peep is getting raspy and I can hear her chest wheezing.
What can I do?????
 
Oh dear-I've got 2 dogs and they are very prey driven so have to be watched until they get used to new arrivals. I say this as I don't want you to despair at the dog's behaviour as things can improve as things go on.
That said as to your problem I don't see you can do anymore than you are doing if you have no vet to advise you and if, as you think ,it has a punctured lung there wouldn't be anything they could do anyway.
Keep it warm, in the quiet and just keep your fingers crossed.
Where did these come from I know you had problems with incubation?
GOOD LUCK! Let us know
 
Hi I think she is going. Her sibling will be distraught. I gave up incubating and got them both from a poultry breeder in Chesterfield. I am absolutely heartbroken. It all happened in such a flash and now this.
 
I am so sorry, in these circumstances I would suspect that there is internal injury, and there is probably little you can do. I would be in the mind of taking to a vet who would even without experience of ducks, will be able to ascertain the degree of trauma internally.
 
read this is okay now? I hope so! Where are you based? It's a good idea to suss out a good duck vet incase of emergencies like this

Dorsetduckowner; I definitely need a vet who has experience with poultry. Love my vet to bits as he is brilliant with my other animals but is truthful to admit that he has little knowledge of birds.
I am in the Manchester area so if you or anyone knows of a poultry vet in that area, then I would be extremely grateful.
Both ducklings back to their tricks and even more cheeky. It seems like a distant bad memory now thankfully.
