    Well if they are eating that stuff instead of their feed it's basically the same as. I'm not an expert in the department of angel wing by any means.. but I've had a couple with it. And I can say that I thing genetics play a huge Role. I had one Cayuga with angel wing and one of her ducklings...

    18% shouldn't cause angel wing. I start my ducks on meatbird and it's 22% honestly I would not cut the feed with oats if I were you.

    That is one way to do it and I believe it would work if... The fit was perfect. I tried this with my call duck and stockings and it was just a disaster. Too loose and she could get it right off.
