Duckling wing issue?

[spencedasavage]

Thank y’all for the advice, my little duckling sure will appreciate it! Here is an image of the little one with its bandage on (worn overnight as well) It seems to be going well so far, and it’s wing is already looking almost fixed, I think maybe one more night and it should be fine! (I’ll keep it on for a bit longer)

From the picture and I could be wrong, but your wrap looks to be a little to tight? From the different videos I have watched it doesn't look like it takes a whole lot to keep the wing tip taped into place to hold it.

I agree.

I agree.

I would think you would still want the duck to be able to move it's wings, just not the tips until the AW is corrected.

All good, I shortened and loosened the wrap on the little one and it doesn’t seem to have an issue with it being on! The wing already looks much better, and I think it will be completely healed overnight!

Great news!

As a final (hopefully!) update, here is the little one looking all good. Also they are almost 6 1/2 weeks old, and only one has started quacking, and I read they would at 6 weeks old. Will they do that soon? We got them ungebdered at TSC so I’m curious to see if we have any more hens!
