He's active he's cleaning up a storm right now just got a limp on left side right sides ok just the left he runs fine just slow walking he limps on that side could be cause he's shifting weight when he steps? Never really noticed it before sorry I'm a nervous gander father

This winter was pretty bad here upstate ny I had to help my buddy this year catch these amazing birds and brought them into the heated barn strongest bird I've ever dealt with and yes I did get popped in the head a few times that's Marsha and Lincoln Marsha wasn't that bad my buddy caught her easily Lincoln on the other hand wanted no part of it definitely wouldn't recommend approaching a wild pair they are freaking huge

Ok I will but you guys know I do allot of research and supposedly baytril weakens ligaments I found one article can you confirm i.e two heads are better than one

Does it do ligament damage in mature animals or just young ones?

Here is a bunch of info on Baytril (enrofloxacin). Has info like dosing for the different species, drug interactions, side effects, etc.

You need to call your vet first thing in the morning.
