Gosling with inflamed joints

[JaylaSan]

This gosling i have had always seemed to be the runt of the geese i have and has little interest in eating as much as the others. when it’s legs were compared to a goose of similar size it is clear the joints on this goslings legs were swollen. i can send pictures if needed but i need help it seems to be doing alright but he lays down a lot more than the others and is skinny.

Pictures would help but your gosling is seriously sick. Inflamed hocks can be from a staph or strep infection or from mycoplasma/synovitis.

I would strongly recommend getting it seen by a vet.
