    We bought her from the store where we buy all of our chickens, ducks, turkeys. This time we thought they where just strange ducks… they where Chinese baby geese.

    Injured Duck Wing

    My Khaki Campbell has a seemingly injured left wing. She keeps it mostly tucked in and cannot flap it. Right now an avian physician is not an option. I've just let it be for around a week to see if it's just a sprain and will heal on it's own, but I've had little improvement. I think I should...
