HELP - duckling is bleeding!

Hey everyone! I just thought I'd let you all know that my little guy (Clover) is doing just fine. Eating, drinking, ducking around like little ducks should

Unfortunately though, one of my females seems to have angel wing. I read that I can use medical tape to wrap around her and secure the wing in place so it will hopefully fix itself. However, does this tape have to stay on AT ALL TIMES until she's fixed? I let the little ones outside during the day to play in the mud/pool, so does this mean she won't be able to go out? Or, won't be able to get wet?

Hi @AmberCamilia I don't think I'd let her swim till you take the tape off If done right and early enough it doesn't take long for it to fix itself.
