droopy ducks

[donna duck]

I have a back yard pond and this week first one and then 3 of my ducks wings started hanging down and dragging the ground when they walked. I have called the vet University and a vet they recommended but no one has any idea why this is happening. Does any one else?

Is the water in the pond stagnant? sometimes when ducks use the pond and no fresh water is being put in the water can get stagnant and could cause botulism I'd look there first . "Heres a link on how to treat if you suspect botulism. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/700526/flushes-for-aiding-in-toxin-removal#post_9508213

Thanks for joining us on the forum. Let me ask some questions.

How old are the ducks, what's the weather like, the condition of the pond, and what are they eating these days?
