Hello,
We have a 5-week-old cayuga whose wing tips stick out (angel wing syndrome?).
This morning we noticed that they are now all bloodied and she keeps "grooming" them. We didn't notice any of the others pecking at her, but that's not to say it didn't happen during the night.
Any advice, please. We are going to separate her for a few days, but keep her in sight of the others, keep her "bath" water clean, and perhaps apply antibiotic ointment? Does this sound about right?
As far as the possible angel wings; should this be repaired, or is it just a thing that happens? None of our other ducks have this. We have 6 total (2 cayugas, 4 Khaki Campbells)
Thanks,
Alison
