The bear rolled our duck house last night adn ripped the door off. Miraculously, all three ducks survived. Tootles, our biggest duck, might have a broken wing. How do we treat it?

I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all..

Awhile back one of the horses (we think) injured a duck and the wing seemed broken. I used a tongue depressor to keep the wing straight and gently wrapped the wing. Then I took him to the pond, every day, for water therapy and it seemed to work. Worth a try I suppose. MB
