so i was excited that my ducks went down to the pond..well now im not letting them no more....the boys went down to burn trash and the male duck(nonsense) was limping at the edge of the pond..got back in and wouldnt come out....his poor wife(giggles) kept trying to get him to come out and go up home to there greenhouse...well we backed off and they finally came out....i went over and picked him up and carried him up to the greenhouse....we checked his leg...his duclaw nail is gone...and his leg joint up by his feathers is "hot"....so we put some asorbine on it and put him away for the night....he is moving it around and walking with a bad limp on it so hopefully its just sprained....so we put up a fence around the door of the greenhouse and around his pool so he has to relax and not go down to the pond...so we r not sure what happened...my boyfriend said he doesnt think it was a snapper because it would of grabbed and held on until it completely ripped its foot off...he said maybe a fish grabbed and pulled it out of joint or sprained....what do u guys think i need to do...guess ill just keep an eye on him...THANKS!!!! I LOVE MY BABIES!!!
