Is the leg fused like that? if slipped tendon the leg won't stretch out straight. Only surgery would help it maybe even too late for that if it's been this way since she was a month old. It maybe be slipped but never heard of one snapping. Let me see if I can find some info. Yes ducks were at one time bred mostly for meat and eggs but many many members on here have ducks and other poultry for pets. You make them what you want them to be. Pekins can be both and live long healthy lives. But they do tend to have leg issue since they grow so fast. As what is best for your ducks is something you have to decide. They can usually tell us with out talking when they are ready to give up.
