[khurbanx]

Hey me again

silly Question but one my ducks have a lazy Wing ? he/she only put them up properly when they want to ... they always done this?

what is this about?

Angel wing, slipped wing, lazy wing are all related/same/similar problems. I don't know that it can be corrected once a duck has stopped growing. It's a problem that occurs due to the high speed of growth of ducks. There are various nutritional things that may be factors. Here is an article about wrapping the wing. If your duck is still growing, it would be worth a try. It won't harm your duck if it cannot be fixed. Pekins do not fly anyway.

Good luck! I'd think you can prevent it from getting any worse, even if it doesn't get much better.
