Thanks Astrid! So the splint, do I just make the whole leg straight? Am going to separate the ducklings from the baby chicks now and give him close access to food and water, I have read that they are quite hardy and will more often than not heal themselves with some time, I really hope so as even though we've only had these guys just over a week, we're all very attached already!
With the chicks we would used a cut up straw to keep the leg straight and offer support. We would also tape that leg to the other leg with enough of an gap for standing (which you may not need to do, as we were dealing with splay)
