She absolutely agreed to a diet!

A cat-food only diet, of course!

Latest update on the Ducknagers:

They all made me mad yesterday!
Blame the unusual warm weather for their bad behavior yesterday evening, they all refused to go into the duck-house and played nasty games with me I was wading through ankle deep mud and they are wearing special mud boots with webs!
In the end i had to go back into the house and grab the flashlight of doom!
Everybody ran into the duck house in the very same way as boulders don't, ducknagers included.
All except for Blanca Duck who was first in the house, stayed there all the time and gulped down the content of the supper bowl. Bad luck y'all only pellets for you this evening!
Then there was the usual fighting for the best sleeping-spots, the others tried to kick the ducknagers out of the bedrooms until Blanca (!) intervened: She just sat down in front of the five new ducks and bit everybody who came too close. I guess a full belly wakes her motherly instincts. (Or did she just wanted to secure her breakfast?)
At about 11:30pm everybody had settled and was sleeping peacefully.
This morning the ducknagers first refused to come out of the house, there was an evil humon standing too close to the door… So they missed the cat-food frenzy. It's a learning process…
Later they were all napping together in the sun:

I am afraid something is wrong with the crested drake's left wing, he is folding it back on top of the right one. Could that be something similar to angel-wing?

You could try wrapping it for 2-3 days to see if that would help. Doesn't look like angel wing. Can't tell for sure but are the feathers completely grown in on this ones wings?

He looks like the feathers have grown uneven o both sides. There are more and longer feathers on the left wing than on the right one. And he is really waddling. Not breeding material!
Wrapping him? - If i try to grab him, he will die from a heart attack! And the other for too.

I figured he might so just leave him alone he's just a pet doesn't have to be perfect right?

My thought too! - I just keep an eye on him and maybe it will grow out. Crested ducks are all genetically damaged somehow… His mom Pompom can't quack like the other ducks, she squeaks. Except for when she gets agitated, then Rrrraaaabbb! Rrrraaaabbb! Rrrraaabbb! But quacking? Nope!
