Muscovy hen's wing is hanging down...Help?

[Skye'sDucks]

Alright; when I wrap her I'll move her into the yard where she can't get into the water.

My mom is swamped right now with helping my brother to move into his apartment tomorrow and other family matters, so we're probably going to wait until the weekend to wrap the wing so she can be able to help me.

Thanks so much again.

Your welcome hope wrapping helps get it back normal.

So...Another update. Either yesterday or today I saw the hen fly a short distance, which is very good news! But at the same time, her wing still droops. I have yet to see her up on the fence with the other hens when they fly around. Sometimes it'll be all of the hens except for her. Maybe she just doesn't want to fly with them? Or maybe its still hard for her to fly?

Should I still try to wrap it either later today or tomorrow? I'm encouraged she was able to fly a little, but her wing still droops about the same.

Exercising her wing is good maybe she’ll work it out on her own but as always if you want to give it a try then by all means. Glad to hear she did fly that encouraging

I may give her a few more days, and if the wing doesn't start correcting its self, I may wrap it for a few days to try to correct it. At least I know she will be able to use it. I saw her fly a second time, at a bit of a farther distance. I don't know yet what I'll do.

There's was once or twice that it looked like she was holding it correctly, but then the next time I see her it's drooping again. Perhaps it'll correct on its own. Hoping so.

Some times it’s really hard to know when to intervene but your most likely making the right decision since she is flying that’s exercising it that should help strengthen her wing muscles.

Sometimes less intervention is best. Sounds as if she is correcting on her own.
