One of my new ducks looks like it is developing angel wing. It was the second to the runt in the group that I got last month. I have noticed a couple weeks ago that it’s wings were droopy but attributed it to the beginning of growing feathers and getting used to that feeling. Then this week I noticed the feathers looking like they are sticking out. I started them on Dumor Duck which is 22% for 4 weeks then dropped them down to the Purina duck which is 19% until last week when I noticed the feathers looking off. Now they are on the Dumor all flock which is 17% and will keep them in that until they are fully feathered out and laying. I got Khakis back in October and used the same step down for them without issue. Everything I’ve read says there is no smoking gun and the fact that only this one is developing this compared to the other 8 seems to track. I plan to get some vet wrap or gauze and athletic tape to wrap the wings up in hopes chip jr (named for our runty dog) will build up the muscles in their wings. Any feedback would be appreciated, Thanks!
