Hi! I am looking for some duck help/advice. Today I went
and let my ducks out like I always do when I am home and later this afternoon I noticed 1 was missing from the flock. I ran down to the barn and she was cooped up in the corner of the barn and when she stood up and started walking she was limping. I looked at her foot and she had a BIG knot in the middle of her foot. When my husband got home, we cleaned it and he stuck a syringe in the top and bottom of the knot and only blood came out of it. The knot was very warm to the touch. There was no scabs or any sores of any type on her foot. I don't know what to do for her. She isn't very tame so I don't want to scare her half to death but I can't stand to see her hurting at all. Please help....any advice is appreciated!
