    Pekin Duck with swollen ankles!

    I am so stumped! I noticed for awhile now my Pekin Duck wouldn’t walk far distances with the other ducks. I just figured it was because she’s a heavier breed so can’t keep up lol!

    Not sure what's going on! My turkey can hardly stand up. He seems to not have his balance at all. :( I'm wondering if him and the rooster I lost a couple weeks ago got into the hens food???
