Normal wing growth or angel wing?

[starfly]

I'm new to ducks. I have 9 and all of them have grown out smooth except for this one. Is this normal growth or the start of angel wing? That are on a low protein grower/finisher and free range. Thanks

Normal. Those are called blood feathers and they get heavy. As long as they are holding them close to body they are ok.

That right wing looking at your duck from behind looks a little like angel wing starting watch him over the next 3-4 days just in case. When mine start with the blood feathers they usually hang down but not out. @casportpony

I agree, looks like it could be the start of angel wing.

Ok. Thank you.

I agree about monitoring closely as it does look like possible angel wing.
