. Now that Palček (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=8174) is out of the woods, one of his brothers developed the so called Angel Wing. We've been feeding them with crushed corn and oats mix (home made - two parts corn, one part oats) and they are kept free-range, so they have all the grass they want available at all times. After we noticed the wing is developing abnormaly, we have removed the corn and oats from their diet entirely, so they are now just grazing and occasionally getting some green salad.
I have also considered putting a sling on the wing to keep it in the right position. I have read that while the bird is still growing, the anomaly can be minimised if proper steps are taken (diet + sling). We've tried using medicinal bandages for the sling, but they didn't work, since our geese have free access to the creek and when the gosling tried to swimm, the bandages got soaked in seconds and prevented him from floating level on the water surface. Today I've bought the elastic net that is usually used for keeping the bandages fixed on a hand, for example. I'll let you know how it works out.
Any ideas and/or opinions are wellcome. I'm going McGiver on this one.
