Hey all. I have 2 mallard ducks. I found one today sitting on the ground, unable to walk. There are no visible injuries, but it tries to walk and one of its legs give out. It can stand but that leg is bothering her. Any tips? Thanks in advance

Is there any redness, heat, or swelling in the leg? Could she have gotten into anything spoiled or moldy?

There's heat, but no swelling or redness. She couldn't have gotten into anything spoiled or rotten.
 
Update: she sadly passed away a few hours after I posted this. Thanks for your help. We will miss her greatly :(
