I'm sorry I can't help more.
At least we're pretty sure it's a slipped tendon.

Please post updates!

We need to see a good close-up of this leg. front and back and maybe we can tell if it's a slipped tendon. Do you still have the hobbles on? it will take more than a day to fix it if it's a splay leg. Make sure when you do the hobbles the bandaid isn't too tight. That can cause swelling too.
to make a boot take a plastic container or lid to one and cut it into the shape of your ducklings foot. Then cover it with tape or vet wrap to cover sharp edges, place the foot onto the boot then wrap the foot onto the boot, go up past the ankle to keep the little one from getting it off. Make sure to wrap snug but not cut off circulation. This will train the foot to layin a natural position.

I’m so scared and sad for him. How do I fix this?

 

[gymnastammm]

The hobbles are still on @Miss Lydia

 

[gymnastammm]

I’m so sad. Does it hurt him?
