Gosling with hurt leg

[Kdcfarm]

Hello I have a two month old gosling and she seemed to have hurt her leg. Seems to be her knee she won’t let me mess with it much without pulling it away. I have started giving her a little more niacin in case it was just bc she has out grown her brooder. She does get out of the brooder twice a day to run around the house. The weather has been nasty here so I haven’t introduced her to the rest of the flock yet. Anyways she has a limp and lameness. But eats and tries her best to walk. She stands just find but doesn’t seem to have the best balance. The knee is just a little bigger than the other so very little swelling. I don’t have the money to take her to the vet. What can I do to help her.

Can you provide a picture of the injured leg? What are you providing as a niacin supplement? Is there anything she could've injured herself on in her enclosure/brooder?

It’s just some powder I add to her feed. The floor under the bedding is slippery she might have slipped. It’s about double the size of her other knee. She does still try to walk on it but she starts screaming and ends up laying back down
