Duckling having difficulty

Thank you for the information, it's always good to have dependable resources. I was a little taken back by Eastwood's response.

How unfortunate. They could have offered to an emergency slot, at least. Keep us posted on little Quackers. I hope he gets better.

Just heard back from my friend. She takes her chickens to Country Animal Hospital in Bethel. She's had positive experiences with their staff.

Right on cool thank you. I am glad to say Quakers is doing better. Sitting better, and stood without falling over.

You can make a little shoe to keep the foot flat, take a butter container or something similar cut it into the shaper of her foot. Wrap with tape or vet wrap to protect the sharp edges then lay the foot on it and wrap with vet wrap just make sure it's snug but not cutting off circulation. Does she keep both legs in normal position when she stands?
What was the episode?

Interesting, I didn't think of something like a shoe, but I don't know how much it would've helped, being the toes would close together. Quakers was standing up this morning, and although a little shaky, the legs looked pretty straight, and the foot was open. I think Quakers is gonna be ok.

That is the purpose of the shoe to lay the foot out in a normal position and then wrap so the foot stays open.
Glad to hear Quackers is doing good!

Right on ok, definitely something to keep in mind should we come across it again.
Thank you
