In reply to: D C T friendly poultry orthopedist 's message, "Re: Injured Embden Gosling Leg" on 22:48:48 07/15/12 Sun

We do have a vet here that is fairly good with avian medicine but I don't know if we have the means to take the little guy in. My husband recently lost his job and then the doctor I worked for retired. I do know that the tendon doesn't seem to be slipping and do feel it is a genuine injury. I have our own vet's email address and might shoot her a line and see what she thinks. Do you think it would be best if we isolated the little guy in a little dog crate with food and water so he can't move around much? They are such social creatures that I hate to cause him more trauma than he is already undergoing. We isolated a chicken with a hurt leg recently in a dog crate(she hurt it going down the ramp out of the coop)and she recovered.

Thanks so much for your help and consideration!
