Beaker is hanging in there. We just gave him another 20 mls or so of the yoghut mix. His breathing got deaper after we did that, I think maybe we got some down his wind pipe again. We ended up putting the remainging stuff into his water bowl for him to drink should he feel like a sip. We moved him on to the verandah and he drank quite a bit. When we moved him from his pen around lunch he was vomiting up the bile (it drips out of his mouth is more like it) but he was at that stage. Since moving him to the house and giving him water we have't seen any more of the bile. He's still holding his neck up and thats a good sign. I think if there ever was a duck to get though this is will be Beaker. He wanted to be top duck for so long, he won't give up his spot without a fight.
Speedy is out in her snake box in the ICU with Beaker. I told her to watch over him tonight as he's feeling a little sick. I really hope Beaker makes it, if only for Tommy. Tommy would be lost without Beaker. I'm going to go and check on Tommy now, poor thing, he's all alone in the duck pen.
