What causes angel wing?
I went to look at two pekin/mallard mixes the Humane Society found wandering down a suburban road and they had "angel wing", I passed I didn't like it.
 
It's just cosmetic and isn't a big deal unless you're looking to breed. I have an Embden goose with angel wing.

I've read it can be caused by lack of protein in their diet or possibly genetic.
 
Someone told me once that it can be caused by too little humidity durring hatch as well. I don't know if that's so or not but that's what they said.
