    Help! My Poor Duck's Foot is Injured!

    Hello all, My poor duck has an injured foot and I need help determining what it is. We noticed this about 7 - 10 days ago and it has gotten worse since, to the point where she is having a very difficult time walking.

    The shipment of chicks coming tomorrow will all be day olds, so they will be one week behind the original 4 Jersey Giants. I was just concerned because I imagine the bantam day olds will be significantly smaller? I hope they all live in harmony!

    Rhode Island Red With Bare Bottom

    I have a RR that is about 9 months old and I just noticed that all of her bottom feathers are missing!
