Well she said it was weak gave tylan powder she didn’t say anything else the leg wasn’t that bad then, I’ll probably contact her again Wednesday hopefully she will be better by then.

The one on the left of the picture is the hurt one I can’t tell a difference in feeling except one is bigger and she won’t open her foot

Can you get more pictures of both these joints?

In the meantime, can you get a food scale from Walmart or Target and start weighing the duckling daily? At this age they should be making daily gains, if they aren't gaining weight daily the chance of them dying increases dramatically.

So does the leg always twist away from the body like that?

It used to be real close to her body when I picked her up now this is what it looks like 2nd picture rather than first picture was yesterday and now she will not open her foot

I wouldn't worry about the foot right now. With your fingers, can you straighten the leg?

There is a tendon that runs don the back of the leg, and it should be in the middle of the leg. Is it in the middle and does it stay in the middle?
