Ducks wing

[Loulouzer]

i have a duck thats 6 weeks old and she was the only one that hatched of 12. She is currently my shadow and we do everything together! Her names gypsy and shes usually a healthy happy duck. She still seems so but i noticed her wing looks odd? Anyone have an answer? Its been like this the last week.. It sticks out and the other does not. Is this a growing wait and see or maybe serious? Shes my best pal and i want her to be safe and healthy as possible. We even traveled for Christmas and I've been considering registering her as a therapy duck down the road. (She rllllly loves small kids) thanks!

What breed is she? Based off the greenish head, you may have a boy. Id look in to angel wing or just see what happens when she/he is a bit older. My males had heavy wings until they grew in to them.

Do an on site search on 'angel wing' and possible treatment regimens. There is a strong possibility that 'she' is a drake.

Shes a mixed breed. Her dad is either Indian runner or a pekin and her mom is either a indian runner or a khaki campbell. I was thinking she may be male as she still has the high pitched chirp but i vent sexed when she\he was 2 days old.

"She" appears to be a drake. Here is some info on angel wing:

Only the one wing needs to be wrapped.
