Please help!! duck foot turning black

[Birdie mom]

Is he at the vet now? I'm on pins and needles ...

Thank you everyone for the input! I took him to the vet at 8 when they opened and they took a look at his foot. They said I did a great job cleaning him up after the maggots hatched and I’ve been keeping him in perfect conditions. They wrapped back up his leg and said the grey/black tissue is trying to heal and should heal.

That’s great hopefully he’s on the mend. Any idea how it happened?

Glad to hear he is going to be ok. Any Idea what happened to his foot?

 

[Birdie mom]

Phew! Glad they think he's on the mend!

Hopefully not a snapping turtle!

Not only Snapping Turtles, Muskies are also another Apex Predator who don't mind a little Peking Duck in their diet.

What are muskies? I only know of the large muskie pikes that live in lakes. Is that the one?

Fresh water fish with teeth like king mackerel

I was thinking musk rats we have them in our mt river.
