My duck was attacked by a fox on Friday. I thought that she wouldn't survive her injuries, but to my surprise, she is still alive and now back to eating and drinking. She has severe wounds on the back of her neck, one under her left wing, and something appears to be wrong with her left leg. I don't know if her left leg could be broken or if it just hurts and she isn't putting weight on it. Her left foot is limp and she isn't trying to even put her foot down. Any advice?
 
You can put her in some very clean swim water. See if she uses the foot. Other than that, I'm going to suggest she see a vet for her leg. I know people splint and such, but w/o knowing what you're doing, I think it's best for a professional. But, she might just need more time to rest and heal. Her eating is a great sign. ❤️
