Duckling Thread!

[Miss Lydia]

@casportpony I have a khaki, she's 3.5 lbs that had a swollen ankle. It is soft tissue, no hard spots. I've been soaking and putting demos on and wrapping but it's not getting better. I was gonna start with a antibiotic but I don't know how much. Can you help with suggestions? Plzzzzz
Happy Easter Eggers everyone

Until @casportpony gets here to help. Question are you keeping her from using it much? With injuries Rest is one of the keys to healing. Happy Easter to you!

So I’ve never seen this before and of all the ducklings (s)he Aflac is the only one but I am pretty sure Aflac has scoliosis. Aflac has always been a little different, didn’t swim the same, run or play the same, crazy side of the head feather and now a bit more “off”. When you spread the crocked wings you see a very crocked spine. Anyone have any experience with this? I attached a picture of Aflac from above. I’ll try and get a better spine picture but Aflac doesn’t like when I spread her wings.
