Yup now thriving walks and runs just has a high goose style step kinda funny but doing well.

Here is Bandida proving she is now Bandido lol Doing awesome and a member of the pack. Hope he fertilizes some eggs.

He did not my guess is he wrapped it too tight in the cast for 2 weeks. If I were a vet and doing this I would wrap for 1 week and then change the cast for the next week. I think 2 weeks on her was too long with her growth.

So to update on bandida she is recovering nicely after the cast came off her upturned foot did not go down and looked swollen though the doc did not think so. I put blu kote on and got a comfrey paste for the leg. Within a day I noticed her webbing looked really dry and dead. I was worried...

Yeah I've kept the b up and hopefully this will work I got some good ideas need to help her get up and running she was swimming circles and hardly moving the leg however she can move it sp that's good. Her poor foot though is curled up i hope she heals

Thank you

I posted this separately but have not had any responses so I'll share back here: so if you have seen or followed bandita the duckling she came with a broken and revealed leg mistaken for a few days as niacin issues. She had to have surgery to break and reset the fracture , cast is off today...

OK i don't have blue kote yet. I'll add it to the list lol. Thanks

Perfect. She prob is gonna have an inside outside home lol. Where we are keeping them now is a mudroom and has space we will see how she develops. On a side note do you or anyone know what may have caused this in our big duck looks like someone pecking or biting new feathers coming in. Was...

Yeah she was with them the first week and a half but been side by side hearing not visual so I am not sure how they will treat her now. During bath time we pass the other ducks over her and let them smell touch each other briefly, I had 2 chickens with her for awhile but removed them once the...

Yes. All the chicks and ducks are together with the exception of bandita she is next to the big brooder. We bought a 150 gallon stock tank with drain hole so we can use as a pond with heater base for year round we do have water on our property but they won't ready for that immediately due to...

Yes she's just starting her growth spurt. I plan to give her some swimming time if permitted after the docs. Fingers crossed. Here's a few of the others loving water time

So lil bandita is growing quicker everyday, she is still smaller than her pals in the big flock. She is super affectionate stands as soon as I enter and wants nothing more than to bury her head in the crook of my arm or neck. Tomorrow afternoon cast may come off so well see how she does.

So lol bandida is still doing well took her to the vet had to clean and remove lower portion of the bandage on her foot. She is definitely turning into a pet lol.

Will do

Yes the vet said if I did not treat it the duck would prob survive and adapt, however he said that the other ducks and chicks would make its life miserable as they are programmed to get rid of the weak or injured as they attract predators. Life expectancy shorter than normal and prob not...

Just an fyi for anyone who may read this my vet bill was 400 to break the leg and reset it and cast it. That included the xrays office visit and a discount. I had it dropped off at 11 and picked up same day at 330. Our vet is an avian vet and exotic animals as well as some farm animals...

Thank you, looking back at some video I see that she was having issues day 1 so as our vet said preexisting. Appreciate all the help.

Update : lil Bandita according to our Doc had a fracture that healed prior to us getting her or him. So he rebooked it and set the leg and should get us down the right path. I appreciate all the help so far on the forum and will keep everyone updated. Thanks again
