I think this duckling might benefit from having its leg splinted and some anti-inflammatories like meloxicam. You got the vitamin B from Tractor supply?

Yes that’s when the vet will be in

Between now and then I would try to limit her activity as much as possible so that she doesn't injure that joint more. When you see the vet, ask them if they think it's an infection, perosis, or an injury. If they think it's an infection, ask about using something like Baytril instead of Tylan.

What did the vet say?

She asked if I would want to take her home or her keep psalms to see if anything they can do she said they can’t operate on her even if she has a slipped tendon because of her size I told her I can’t make her better and asked if she can do anything for psalms and she has kept her. She said her other foot is starting to do the same, so I don’t know if she will make it but I’m hopeful.
