Wobbly duckling. What to do?

Beautiful little ones. Great news too. Thanks for update and pic.

Trek, our blue Swedish, is walking so much better! I just hope her wings will get better. They are still crooked.

Ducklings grow soooooo fast. Can you post an updated photo that shows her wings?

Here are a couple

Have you wrapped for angel wing?

 

[PirateGirl]

Yes, this looks like it may be the start of angel wing! Do a search on BYC and/or Youtube and you should find some different ways you can try and wrap it. It may or may not get better, but I'd bet you can stop it from getting worse.

Thanks! Ill get right on that today! Thank you.

Does one wing look like it is too high and one looks like it is too low? Or is it just the low wing that needs help?

It's the "low" wing, or the left wing that is the problem wing. For some reason angel wing is more common in the left wing. It's also sometimes called dropped wing or droop wing. When ducklings are growing, especially when they start getting those flight/wing feathers, sometimes the wing muscle isn't strong enough to hold up their wing in the right position as it is getting heavier with those feathers. Over time (since they are still growing) this can lead to a permanent deformity. If you wrap the wing, in theory, it will be properly supported and held in good position while the duckling is still growing so ideally this stops the deformity from happening.

I want to say your girl has such a perfect white bib without a single blue feather in it, she's lovely!
