    Muscovy Hen not walking.........Good Update

    UPDATE: she is up and walking alot more today. Can ducks get constipated? Her poop was hard this morning when I let her out and it still had that yellowish stuff in it.

    We started to notice her limping so we separated the boys but she wasn't getting better. She takes every opportunity she can to sneak into our laundry room so we set her up a nice area in there to let her rest. She still wasn't putting weight on her leg, I felt her leg and joints but nothing...
