My one year old welsh harlequin Sandy has a hurt wing. My guess would be from our Rouen drake sparky mounting her, but really not sure what happened. We have a flock of the two above and 6 chickens from last summer, and then three more ducks and a goose this summer. Her wing was hanging low starting a couple of days ago. She seems fine other than that, but she has stopped laying eggs. She also stopped laying when she had a small foot injury that we treated this spring. The “elbow” joint is swollen, but it’s not hot or soft. Just feels bigger than the other wings joint. I read that it could be dislocated, but I’m not sure if it will correct itself or what to do. Tyia for any suggestions

Can't tell in the pic, but if it appears to be twisted, it's angel wing. Not sure if it can happen in domestic ducks but I had a rescue mallard who got angel wing. Hopefully more people will chime in because I don't really have experience with ducks:hmm
I hope she feels better soon:)
