Baby ducks and geese grow very rapidly due to the high
protein in the starter. When my mother had geese I
learned that giving them less starter and letting
the babies eat plenty of grass would prevent "angel
wing". I am not sure about the cause of your duckling's
foot problem. I have observed leg problems in baby
turkey's of the large breeds as they gained weight.
A photo of your duckling's feet might help me to
understand its problem
