    Thanks for the tag @Isadora

    Ouch! Poor duckie. Are you able to get clear pictures of the bottom and top of the foot? You're correct about the foot soaks @Loyaltydoll , just make sure the duck doesn't drink Epsom salt water. How long has this been going on? How old is the duck?

    Getting some antibiotics would be a good idea, possibly necessary. Amoxicillian is a good antibiotic but I used enrofloxacin (or Baytril) in a similar case. You should know that this antibiotic isn't advised for birds that produce eggs or will be used for meat. Any eggs will need to be tossed while using any antibiotic. I'll get a link where I purchase enrofloxacin. Are you in the USA?
