She is 6 months old, she eats Purina pellets for ducks, scratch, mealworms, peas, vitamin liquid placed in water, sprinkle pure brewers yeast on scratch for all seven ducks.Sorry to hear about your duck. Could you answer a few additional questions?
How old is she? What is she being fed? Is there any swelling around her hocks, or warm spots? Could you post a video of her trying to walk? To post a video, upload it to a video platform like Youtube or Vimeo, and copy/paste the link here.
I agree, with Sourland. It would be best if you mover her into a soft padded, that prevents her from injuring her legs again. Regardless if the problem is related to a vitamin b deficiency, I would start supplementation since B vitamins are essential to healthy leg growth and structure. You can get some Cattle vitamin B complex, and give her 1ml over treats, or orally.
we inspected her leg and feet and i thought i felt heat from bottom pad but thenfriend came over said shefelt heat onthe right but that’s as i soaking her pads/legs in Espon salt water bucket yes i will try to upload video
