A few of my almost 3 month old ducks - their wings sort of cross at the tips. Is that a bad thing? They have been on Flock Raiser since 3 weeks old (on gamebird/waterfowl starter for the first 3 weeks). I offer peas and chopped lettuce. They free range from 9am to 8-9pm. The wings on the tips just do not lay flat. I just noticed this actually about a week ago. Thanks!

ETA - it is definitely not angel wing. Their wings are against their bodies...just the tips overlap.

It isn't a health concern. For showing you want them neatly tucked side by side without overlapping more than.. a half inch? I think there was a measurement that went along with it but I could be wrong.
 
Thanks so much guys! I couldn't actually find anything in my Storey's guide or online about it. I didn't think it could be protein because they eat Flock Raiser and free range.
