Her foot is more in the middle of her body like bent inward. When she tries to walk she walks with a limp and has to balance herself with her wings.
Other than that her overall health is good.

Well l am glad to here it is not like mine it turns out that he had a spine injury and it was affecting his leg he died a few days ago it was heart breaking. Well what l would do is try and work his leg into the right position but if that doesn't work l am not sure l know it can cost a lot seeing as l just took my duck but l am sure the bet could help if that would be a possibility

Sorry to hear about your duck it's so funny how we can get so close to these little feathered friends. If there was a vet in the area that worked with ducks I would probably give it a go but unfortunately there isn't. I will just keep working with her she has been like this for a little while now but it has got cold out and it seems to bother her more in the cold so I figured a little tlc away from the rest and keeping her a little warmer might help and have her up and ready to go again by spring.

That's weird that the vet won't help ducks

Birds are very difficult for vets to work with. Very difficult to treat due to delicate respiratory systems.

I might find one in a couple of the nearby towns if I call around. But the one we have is small and just works on dogs and cats.

Oh huh that doesn't seem fair
