My 4 year old call duck is limping since I opened the coop this morning. She was perfectly fine last night, and now she can barely move around. I brought her in for an epsom salt soak already, and now she is separated from the other ducks. While in the bathtub she did not use the foot at all to paddle. The foot and leg are hot to the touch compared to her other leg, and I do not feel any breaks.
Here is a video of her while I am feeling her foot for breaks:
There are no scratches on her feet so I ruled out bumblefoot, and she is fed Mazuri waterfowl maintenance feed so I also ruled out nutrient deficiency
Should bring her into the vet now or wait a couple days to see if it improves on its own?
