Yesterday I was by the pond & I heard a snap sound like a stick breaking, then my Sebastopol goose started screeching. It looks like her wing broke, it's dragging on the ground. She was by herself so I dont know what caused it to break, poor baby. Today she is dragging the wing. Does anyone know...
I found my runner duck injured yesterday, covered with flies. She has an injured thigh.chest, I think from a snapping turtle. I washed her off, gave her 1 shot of Penicillen, & covered areas with antibiotic oint. Well today she has millions of tiny squirmy crawly things looks like very tiny...
I'm pretty sure my runner has bumblefoot. Her leg & foot is very warm, not cool like other leg, she has trouble using it & I see a big callous thing on the bottom.

Something got hold of my gosling's leg while she was on the pond , left bite marks on her leg, (not foot) & almost drowned her today. I know there are bass, carp, turtles, 1 big old catfish & lot of brim in the pond. My gosling is almost 4 months old. If her leg is broken will it heal back?
