Hello all! An update on my little with angel wing. I wasn’t able to get her wrapped and keep her wrapped long enough to get her wing to correct. Yesterday I noted a few more of my girls flight wings look funny to me. Do these look like the start of angel wing to you? Are rolled oats safe to add...
Oh don't feel bad at all!! I just have a couple of houdinis on my hands (this little duckling and my bloodhound puppy!!) If I can't get the panty hose to work then I may just let her be. I don't want to stress her more than she needs to be. As long as its not going to hurt the other wing joints.

When we stretched her wing out to get the wrap on there, it doesn't look like any feathers are missing. I think it is part of the flight feathers coming in as well as the way she is holding it. When we got up this morning to check on her the wrap was off, so we re-wrapped her and then gave her...
Hello! Just wrapped my girl tonight (saw this way of wrapping after I had wrapped her) but her wing just looked heavy a few days ago and now seems to flop out. All my girls are about 6.5 weeks old. Here are few before and after pics. She’s still mad at me for wrapping her so getting a good one...
