This was my first time hatching eggs (chicks) in an incubator. I was totally baffled when my 1 week old chick started growing these enormous wings that looked like angel wings! After doing research, it looks like this is more common in ducks and rarely in chickens. I’m not sure what to do from here! Help!

That is not angel wing from your pic posted. The wing tips would be twisted outward if it was. Best of luck. :)
