I enlarged it so everyone can see better. Is the area circled warmer than the other leg? -Kathy

Yes it is a little warm to the touch

Warm to touch or warmer than the other leg? Sometimes it's hard for us to tell when their feet or legs are fevered because their body temps are much higher than ours...

Just an update for everyone that gave advice on Squidge. He's doing much better today. He's finished his meds and is eating again! Poop is still a little green but back to normal state (other than colour) but it's no longer fluorescent. He's finally back out in the duck house tonight, after spending a week in my room haha! Anyone know how long it will be until he's able to have a swim again? I think he really misses swimming with his buds! The fence the dog dug under has how got some new reinforcements & they now keep him on a long wire to be safe, doubt it will last tho.
Big thanks to anyone that replied.

Yay!!! He's adorable!!


I'd let him heal a bit longer before community swimming, make sure he is past getting an infection easy... give him single swim time though, like in the tub with clean water... hydrotherapy is always helpful in speeding healing for ducks...
