    Goose with hurt foot/leg

    You are right; her feet look pretty normal. I'm glad to hear she is eating fine and all. Does she have any joints higher up on her legs that feel hot or swollen. I'm trying to figure out what is really preventing her from walking around more. Hopefully she will just keep on improving and get...
