hi i have a 5 day old that has spayed legs which i did treatment for and it getting better,but her legs are closer together but she can not extend her legs out to walk like her join is stuck stiff is there any things i can do to help her?thank you

Please get a picture of the legs front an back. A video would be nice too. To post a video you need to upload on you tube or Vimeo then copy an paste here. Could be slipped tendons if she can’t extend her legs all the way. Does her knee area look swollen?

 

[Duck4life]

Yes her knee area looks swollen ill try to get some photos thank you

A picture would be awesome, and what kind of bedding is she on?

 

[Duck4life]

Right know she is on blankets because when we put staw in it would no stop get in her nose and the chipping they would eat them

Yeah, just make sure the blanket doesn't slip around on the floor when she walks, they need it sturdy and rough.

 

[Duck4life]

Yeah she cant really walk she just hops around

I would think that is slipped tendon. How long has this been going on? Hatched like this? Is a vet an option?

Sense he/her was born
