The little feathers under the wings on my ducks are comming out
looking bad,not together and will not stick back, I tumble and
finish up with a blow dryer, but to under side of the wing just
looks bad. Any suggestions? Thanks

do you invert the wings or do you split them from the outside and clean that way?
if you are splitting them, try inverting them. if you are afraid to invert or you already are, then you need to spend a little more time washing and rinsing that area to get it a little more clean. if they are clean and you get them dry, they will look much nicer.
if you are splitting them, try wiring and sewing up the hole before you blow dry it. this will help keep the moisture inside the bird from getting on the feathers outside.
