I think she landed on it while flying badly and crash landing on the deck steps about 6 weeks ago now.
She would put it out a bit, but not much. I think she used it this weekend when the dogs scared them and they flapped away and now she won't even stick it out.
She's carrying it forward a bit and looking from the front, you can see her chest is very lopsided. I tried to get a pic last night, but she did not want to pose. These were the best I could do as it was getting dark and could only get her from the back.
She's doing everything normally, just not using that wing - still using the other to stretch out and help down the stairs in the morning.
Blue is the middle duck (poor Cadbury is bringing up the rear due to her foot injury - still don't have a clue what got her, but she is fine other than limping along - looks like a bad scuff at the ankle on the front)
at the pool last night - you can see how her right wing is out a big and not tight to her body (Blue on the left)
Do I need to do anything to help it heal?
