Hurt leg

[Bevy326]

One of my ducks has been limping for close to a month now. When it first started I noticed she was missing her back toe nail. It never bled or anything. I keep checking her foot. There are no signs of bumblefoot or infection. She has been eating normally and continued to lay eggs until about 2 days ago. Is there something more I should be doing? I haven't been allowing her to wander far with the other ducks. She mostly just sits in the pond all day.

You could take her inside and contain her. Maybe less walking more healing.

Could you post a video of her walking and the underside of her foot? Does her leg feel warm?

How many drakes do you have ? Maybe an injury from a drake?

I don't have any drakes. How long do leg injurys typically take to heal? The only time she walks around is to get food

Is there any special diet she should be on?
