If the ducks aren't too wild, maybe they would go into a crate/pet carrier if you put bread pieces in it? If not, try using a butterfly net (if the opening is large enough) to catch the baby, at least. If the mom is injured, catching it in the net might hurt it. . . .good luck!!

If you can't do it just keep an eye on the duck. You don't want to put it under undue stress. Maybe it will slow down soon and you will be able to capture it.
Good luck.

Boil some water. If things go South you can have soup. I'm sorry, that is in poor taste but I couldn't resist. I hope things work out OK.
