I will in the morning. I will try and get a video of her walking, too.Glad to hear her limp is doing better.
Maybe you could try to get a few pictures of that bowed leg, from a few angles?
The drake started mating with her even though they don’t have a pool. He’s never done that before, and it seems like her limp is getting worse. I believe it could be the mating doing it. I’m giving the drake a few more days before I butcher him.
@Isaac 0 I got the pictures of her leg. I didn’t know if you lost this thread or not.
I’ve never seen her tripping over her feet. She’s still limping slightly, but it’s not as bad as before.Sometimes Pekins will have a slight angulation to their gate, as long as she not tripping over each foot, I wouldn't worry that much.
Did you figure out why she limping . My pekin is doing the same thing . Has yours improved ?I’ve never seen her tripping over her feet. She’s still limping slightly, but it’s not as bad as before.

Put in another female. It may helpYesterday afternoon, a noticed one of my ducks limping. I checked all over both feet and legs, and couldn't find anything. No sores, wounds, or bumbles. No swelling or hotness, either. I washed off her feet to be sure. Today she started limping worse, and again I checked her feet and legs. Nothing. She gets a niacin supplement, so I'm pretty positive it isn't a niacin issue. I thought maybe my drake was being too rough when mating, so I emptied out their pool yesterday. I had them separated for a while, too. I put them back together since my drake was throwing a fit. A vet is not an option, at least not at the moment. If it continues to get worse, it is a possibility, although I don't think there are any vets near me that will treat her. I hate seeing her hurt. Any help is greatly appreciated. I can get pictures of her feet in the morning. Thanks in advance.
