My 5 1/2 week old pekin/mallard doesn't have any feathers of her little baby wing! Please tell me this is normal and she's about to start growing her big girl feathers!

Yes, entirely normal. Maybe kind of freaky the first time you see it. I can't remember if I was worried about it. She's just feathering. Isn't it happening on both wings? It's usually both at the same time.
