So Boes didnt eat or drink much last night or today. Hoping he perks up. Still alert and moving around a little in pen.

Are you giving him any vitamins? If not might want to consider getting some to put in his water it can give him a boost.
I hope he perks up too.

Thanks guys!! He can almost walk normally! Going to keep him locked up for a couple days so he doesn't agitate it but he can use the stump to move pretty well!!!

Bose is doing great he can really use stump well. You wouldn't think a one footed duck could stalk dogs in a living room but thats his new favorite pass time.... and I got my first black egg today!!!!!

 

[Miss Lydia]

LOL how do the dogs feel about it?
Did you wrap his stump at all?

Congrats on the egg a real beauty.

The dogs indulge him. He goes after my boy labradoodle the most and he just gets up and moves. I've been blessed with dogs that know how to behave with the birds. I still have his stump wrapped and its wet and nasty here so hes still inside.

 

[Miss Lydia]

You may have to keep it wrapped forever just because it may stay opened with him walking on it. I really don't know but Just thinking out loud.

That is great your dogs are tolerant. Mine are too as long as we don't have babies.

He definitely uses the very end of it to walk. Maybe some kind of rubber wrap when he finally goes outside
