    Duck foot injury / illness, need advice

    I keep forgetting to update this! I didn’t want to bother anyone with a ping but pretty soon after (1+ week) the spots slowly started getting less dark in colour & started shrinking. By week 2 it was more noticeably healing, colour was getting less black and closer to regular colours. About now...

    Duck foot injury / illness, need advice

    Recently the humidity has been harder to control in my duck house than usual, and now my boys feet don’t look good. I’m assuming the humidity + cold has done it, or helped do it ? I don’t fully believe it’s bumble foot as some of these cut like things have a scaly / ridged sort of texture. I...
