Posting a picture is the best way to tell.

If that bandage gets wet and heavy he could drown. I'd keep him locked up for a few days that is usually all the time it takes to work.

Looks great, but no swimming while wrapped.

Well he sure is adorable. And the bill tip looks good. I'd keep the ACV going for a few more days.

I sure would examine it closely,you can try putting some ACV into his drinking container 1-2 Tab per gallon that can help kill some bacteria and can help heal too. Also Vetericyn spray for wounds and infections is good. Both of these mean not having to spread something on it if it's loose

Looks like he broke the tip is it lose?

Aw bummer! @jchny2000 is the member who had success with angel wing when her duck or goose was in molt lets see if she can give advice.

:thumbsup Awesome. I tell ya these birds are amazing at what they can recover from. It's a good thing since we've all learned some tough lessons from them. I agree with everyone he will be fine just keep him safe from the flies and give it time to heal. Not sure I'd let him get it wet a lot so...

Aww @RubyNala97 yes we need some pics to see how bad it is.

You can also slip a sock[sizing depends on size of duck]or ladies or child's stocking over. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/peking-duckling-with-crooked-neck-help.761308/page-3 starting at post 29

That is awesome Congratulations :woot

@CayugaJana has one now that has a broken wing and she wrapped her several times and she kept getting out of it so she now has her wrapped and with a part of a legging over her whole body I'd say that would work for 2 wings. Hopefully she'll see this tag and talk about what she did.

Great video Vyctoria!! Thank you for taking the time to do this. Sorry your having a struggle wrapping your duckling. Have you tried wrapping the duck in a towel then wrapping the wing, Vet wrap is what vets use to wrap wounds after they put no stick gauze on the wound it sticks to itself. The...
