Please Help. duckling with twisted foot.

[JustAChickenLittle&More]

I need help with what to do with my little Peking duckling. I have four and never noticed anything wrong with them. Then I went out to play with Them and noticed one of them has a broken ? Left foot, or twisted left leg. I know what they do with with baby chicks, thebut have never heard of this, or what to do about it. He gets around, but he seems to be growing slower than the rest. If you know of anything I could do, please let me know.

I'm sorry that I don't have a link to offer, but on this site I've seen splints that people have made with vet wrap. My first step is always Epsom salt soaks too. Good luck.

This may help https://sites.google.com/a/poultrypedia.com/poultrypedia/poultry-podiatry a lot of info on treating chicks but can also be used for ducklings. most important is trying to keep the weight off while healing, not letting the duckling run around but give plenty of water therapy make sure this one can access the pool from the outside easily and get out from the inside easily. Maybe set up a small hospital pen and coop with one friend to give the duckling time to heal.
