New member worried about muscovy duck

[RainyCarnival]

Our muscovy duck Mellow has what we think might be a broken leg. Over the past week, she’s been seperated from the others, but is now not moving either leg or eating much. I’ll be waiting for any other questions.

I don’t know if that posted properly, but that’s her in a warm bathtub, her bad leg on this side.

Can we have a picture of the leg compared to her healthy leg?

Just took it. The leg on the left, her right is the bad one. She doesn’t seem to want to us her good leg either though.

Welcome to BYC, sorry your duck isn't feeling well. Is a vet an option?

It’s not really swollen it looks like. For now give her water therapy everyday and maybe give her a female friend in a seperate cage, my duck Clementines broken leg just healed about a week ago. I did that and her leg eventually healed

No. We’ve had problems before with three different sets, one from each of the first two died and the third is doing great today. As for vets, we had had called three, but only the last one even accepted to see them, their excuse being that they don’t do ducks
