    Broken Duck Leg Around Ankle Joint Area

    The most serious threat to that nasty wound is infection… she’ll start to feel especially hot around the leg. Definitely clean it really good with and antiseptic and keep it wrapped to keep out dirt and bacteria, but it may not be enough without an antibiotic…

    Yikes, that does look nasty. Yeah the splint works really good to stabilize the leg. Might need to wrap it tighter for a skinnier leg I’d assume. Just make sure there’s no bones protruding from that break.

    I have a duck who has a broken ankle joint and can’t walk on it at all. When I gently feel around I can hear the bones crackling. Any advice on how to splint it?

    Male or Female Brown Chinese Goose?

    No guesses pretty please, need an experienced goose owner to help a gal out. I actually have two Brown Chinese Geese but this is the one that sits in my lap and lets me take all kinds of pictures. 😝🤣 They should be two years old now, and no eggs that I’ve seen, and this one in the picture has...
