Knowing the breed could also give me a clue as to the calfâs mommaâs diet as well as his, as a high protein diet can cause swollen hocks. It can also be a clue as to is he on pasture or concrete ( hard surfaces ) which can also cause swollen hocks. Also I would need to know if he is being conditioned as a show animal.
There can be several causes, which are outlined below. (i) If the duck has a bacterial infection which has caused the 'ankle' or the hock to swell, a course of antibiotic injections can help. Make sure that the injections are made into the breast muscle, not the leg where a tendon can be damaged.
