    Angel wing in ducks, & how we wrap to mend it - Pictorial

    I have had that happen where I can tuck the tip back under and it stays. I decided to just go ahead and tape these two to make sure the tips go back under the wing since the drake's wing seemed more twisted and it has been for a week or more now. Sometimes I see a wing stick out briefly and...

    We have two bantam Australian Spotted ducks, a drake (eclipse phase) and a hen that were both hatched last year, that are developing angel wing as their flight feathers are growing in during this molt.

    I had a Call duck with a broken wing last year and I had to tape it so it would not dangle. What I used was paper tape from the Dollar Tree. By the time the tape came loose, the wing was healed. I use paper tape for anything on birds that requires taping because it is cheap, non-toxic, and...
