Hello

I have two Pilgrim goslings that are around 8 weeks old. Ever since my female started getting her wing feathers she has had droopy wings. It is only when she is relaxed. If she is walking around or if something startled her they are up tight.

It doesn't appear to be Angel wing. They are droopy not sticking out or twisted.

Am I doing something wrong? Can I do anything to help?

I have a pilgrim female with the same issue on one wing. I don't think it is angel wing (she had angel wing on the other side so we wrapped to correct and it did nothing for the droopy wing). I have read that it might be due to heavy blood feathers and underdeveloped wing muscles, so I am hoping she will outgrow it.
