Is this angel wing?

[Ducksandchickens]

Ok so the little gray duck is the one I’m wondering about. Is that angel wing or something else? Unfortunately Alex (that was her name) passed away. We knew she was a runt and probably want going to make it long and I noticed her droopy wing. I think her wing was part of the reason she died. Since she is dead and I miss her, I wouldn’t want to mess up again. If it’s angel wing then i want to know how to fix it if another of my birds get it.

Can only waterfowl get it? I have chickens too and I don’t want them to get it.

Sorry those are bad pictures. I don’t have any more and obviously I can’t take better ones since my Alex has passed.

I’m getting worried. One of my other ducks seems to have a droopy wing

It doesn’t look like markes though. I least I don’t think so

I just read it’s only for chickens quail and turkeys. Have you thought about sending in the dead one for an autopsy?

She’s been dead for a while. I’ve just never had the time to make a thread for this. The dead one died in late February. We buried her body. This was our first duck death so we didn’t really know what to do

Theres the avian blood test for macaw sexing... Could they test for disease?

Yes but right now we are kinda short on money cause I’m in lots of sports. Plus we don’t have the time. I’m just trying to figure out what was wrong with Alex!

I’d be more worried about the one with symptoms. Did Alex show anything else besides the wing?
