we wrapped waffles’ wing in a wrap and it healed fine. Today I find her like this. Veterinarians are booked until October the closest one that can see her is 5 hours away and they can see her the 15th of September. Please help.

She can't walk? tell us what is going on.
Yes, she can walk. Her eye looks very irritated, feathers on her wing are becoming harder than they should be. She’s not eating very much and won’t drink. She just looks very very bad..
 
Do you have drakes and if yes how many. She looks roughed up.

Do you have any terramycin eye ointment? if not you can find saline rinse recipes online for eyes.
We have 3 females, (including waffles) and 1 drake. We will totally buy some terramycin eye ointment.. and back to the first question, does this look more like angel wing? I’ve never seen hard feathers like this but I’ve never had any problems similar.
 
Not really, with angel wing the wing feathers will stick out like a hitchhiker's thumb.
I see the tip of her wing looks like it isn't laying where it should but it doesn't look like angel wing. She just looks like she may have been worked over by your drake, with how dirty she is. Have you noticed him paying more attention to her than the other 2?

What happened to her wing that required wrapping it.. how long ago was that?

What is her age and feed routine?

Are those pin feathers on her neck?

Is she still active and alert.. eating, drinking, and responding to her flock?

Yeah, I see how the primaries point away from the body with angel wing.
