Koda’s Story:
Koda was found abandoned in a box, along with her friend, Kenai the chicken. They made their way to Luvin Arms in June of 2022 after a volunteer had been made aware that a cardboard box containing a young duck and chick was found at a local park. The abandoned pair were covered in feces and corn. Both were in bad shape, pale, and missing feathers.
After their rescue, Luvin Arms sought immediate veterinary care for Koda who was struggling to walk and having respiratory problems. Koda’s nostrils were so packed with fecal and other matter that it was impairing her ability to breathe. After only a week of love and care at the Sanctuary, Koda began breathing better and her feathers started growing back in. The Care Team lovingly helped her in the pools to gain strength and better use of her legs.
Koda and Kenai first lived with Walter, a rescued turkey who quickly took them under his wing. The three were an adorable interspecies trio, and we loved seeing Walter have such sweet companions, especially in the last year of his life. Today, Koda has bonded with Emerald, and they live in a flock with other young ducks. Koda has also gained a devoted new friend, Mic Jagger, our newest duck resident, who loves to follow her everywhere.
