Hi I’m a very inexperienced duck owner and my ducks leg has been enlarged for quite some time and he is unable to walk. I don’t know why or what to do

Any sign of bumble foot (bottom of the foot)? What have you done to treat? Warm Epsom salt soaks (don’t let him drink the water) possibly infection or a break, is a vet an option? I wouldn’ let it go and not do anything.

I don’t believe it’s bumble foot and I’ve given him warm baths without epsom salts. I may take him to the vet soon but l I wasn’t sure if i’d need to find a vet that specializes in birds or not
