They have shipped!!!!!

I agree! I would cut up an old credit card if you have one and use that along with bandaid to create a split and keep it on for a few days. I've never had to do it before, but I've heard of others doing it and the ducklings bouncing back rather quickly

She will probably be okay, I'd look into splinting the foot flat. I know others here who have had curled foot ducklings that recovered fine.

Ok I will need someone to show me how. I am seriously trying not to cry right now.

This is the first video I found when I looked it up on YouTube. I would use something hard though if you have it.

What a relief they're well! - That curled up foot will be fine in a few days, once she starts using it more and more. Just watch it for now. If she is not walking on the top of her foot it will unfold.
Can't wait to see the pictures...

she looks like she is walking on her knuckles, you really think it will straighten out? They did have a heat pack and some Gro Gel in their shipping box thankfully. They were starving when they got home.

I’d go ahead and make the little shoe.

I am apologizing upfront for the fuzzy pics. Between me shaking, my dog trying to get between me and the babies and the little squirmy girl this was the best I could do at the moment.

Difficult without a picture!
If she is... no, if you have the gut feeling that her toes are rolled in permanently, go with a sandal. If it looks more like temporary stiffness, wait some time.
Daisy had her toes curled up too when she arrived, but they weren't stiff at all. Can you unfold her toes without much resistance and no obvious discomfort? If yes, wait. She may need to find her foot.

Don't cry! The worst is over. Glad they finally made it!

I forgot the cutest pic when I picked them up from PO
