My 165 pound mastiff pup, trampled my duck that hes bad legs. The poor thing had major rd rash on it's back and a gouge in its neck where the skin peeled back. This happened about a week and a half ago. I washed it up, and put antibiotic on him, and he appears to want to live.
However, he can hardly walk because he's stepping on his own feet. He has always done this. I'm new to ducks but i think its a niacin deficiency. Anyway, it seems to be worse now that he was trampled. Is there anyway I can fix his legs?
My bigger ducks (I bought 2 weeks earlier) pick on him, so i keep him seperated, in a small enclosure. He doesn't use his legs much, so is that adding to the problem? Today i put a shirt on him, and put him in the pool. He loved it.
