1 Week Old Duckling Limping

[Bedlamateur]

In the picture, and video, to me, it just looks like the duckling is leaning more on the good leg, so it makes it look as if the other leg is up higher. Am I'm wrong with that assumption?

He does lean on one leg but the bad leg is also angled oddly-- his "elbow" is more outward than his good leg, his feet face inward more, and when he lays you can see it pokes out a bit more than his good leg.

If you want, you could just leave it, and see if it corrects itself over time, or go to a vet, and see if they can push it back into position. I'm hesitant to suggest pushing the leg back into place by yourself if indeed it is out of place.
