Hi all, I'm looking for some advice regarding my Aylesbury boy, he has an abscess on his left ankle, I've been to the vets 3 times, 1st time they lanced it, puss everywhere. He's on meta cam pain relief and Baytril antibiotics. 3 time at vets and more puss came out. This will be now the 2nd week of meds. The vet has said about using a GA to do an X-ray to see if it's gone into the bone, but I'm wary of GA especially in ducks. I'm hoping that someone can give my some advice as what to do . Thanks from a worried duck Mum
