One of my ducks this morning (largest one, though <2 months old) was sitting very calm like a pancake while the others went out into their pool. I tried to see what was going on and he(?) started limping away. Could not fully stand up, and upon trying to waddle away, even fell over onto his back at one point. I don't have a whole lot of experience with bumblefoot so I honestly can't tell whether this is bumble or just calluses. There's also wetness inside the nostrils that leaks out sometimes, like a human cold.
He seemed totally fine up until this morning, and the other 3 ducks are also acting healthy. I'm prepared (mentally and with several youtube videos) to attempt foot surgery if necessary, but I'm also seeing pictures that look remarkably like these feet and the forums are saying "that's not bumble at all!" What else could it be?
