Also post some pictures when you have a minute.
Sometimes what looks like angel wing in the beginning Ends up just being their wing feathers growing in and they end up being perfectly fine.
There was no doubt in my mind that they have it, they both have normal right wings but their left wings stick straight up in the air vertically , I’ve wrapped them with vet tape and redo it every other day so I won’t be able to post a picture for a couple days.

WOW! very interesting read thankyou! does this by chance happen to chickens OR is it just something that happens to ducks?
love the video as well :)
Hello @mcChicken39! It is true that Angel wings primarily affects waterfowl, but it is possible for chickens to get it. I have a chick that has it right now, and we are working hard to correct it. Hope this helps!

Excellent video, thank you! We cover the birds heads when working with them (light colored pillow case works great they can still see light and shapes but calms them quickly). We put arm in pillow case, grab head (gently if course) with the pillow cased hand and use other hand to fold pillow case over head). This works great for longer neck birds (turkey/geese).
Thanks again, off to tape two adorable nibbling Pilgrim fluff balls with confidence....
