Re: How to sew up an injured duck

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

Thank you all so much for your imput. Thanks to you all, I still have my flock (minus one) and I think they'll all make it. But.... I can't for the life of me figure out why one of my ducks can't walk. The bite wounds on his back were nothing compared to the others and yet, hard as he tries, he can't get up. Any ideas on what caused this? I've examined him and there doesn't seem to be anything broken. Thanks!

Might he have some internal injuries that make it hard for him to walk? Maybe after a day or so he will be able to get around a bit better. Hope so!
