Breed?

dont tape wings unless its for angel wing (think hitch hikers thumb) The hitching up because of the blood feather weight is normal, and they will outgrow it with time.

Yes, this is normal. Once their feathers are done growing in, they'll stop doing this.

Ok, here's a picture. Yes, her wings are clipped. As I was unsure of the breed I decided I'd rather be safe than sorry when I turned them loose in my yard. I checked for blood feathers and didn't see any. I was trying to figure out how old they are and I'm coming up with about 15 weeks.

nothing wrong with either of their wings from that picture. "Looks" like a possible male left and female right based on their size and wing coloring.

I was going to say the same C, and My drakes have alot harder time keeping their wings in the right position when those feathers full of blood start coming in.

 

[Darkwings]

Well I'm not going to worry too much. They do have the same wing coloring and I believe both to be females. The one on the right has always been smaller and she folds her wings very tightly, which is why you can't see the blue. Thanks for all the advice!
