Baby goose with weird wing problem please help

[kris1990]

Hello,BYC! Can you please help me? We have a baby goose that ha some problems in the egg and she almost died. She had some problems with her legs that got better when she grew a little older. Now she has a problem with one of her wings. Can anyone tell me if there is anything we can do about it? Or what might be causing it? Thank you!

It's been like this for a while.

Of our 11 geese one of them, a female, had a similar wing problem. At first we thought it was Angel Wing (so she is named Angel), we wrapped it to no avail. The wing is sort of twisted around. She can stretch it out and sort of fly with the other geese but it is still the same and never corrected. It does not seem to cause her any problem. And, in fact, she is the only female that has bonded permanently with one of the males. There are three males that remain bachelors and one male (the oldest) that hoards the remaining females.

The short answer, for our female, the wing presented no problem.

It's not angel wing but sounds more like twisted wing usually Sebastopol problem. Not sure at this stage there is anything to be done. Like jtn says it shouldn't cause any problems.

What can cause twisted wing?

From this link it is said angel wing and twisted wing comes from feeding too high of protein
