is your lab full grown or a pup? personally I try to avoid chicken wings on their own for larger dogs, as they are too easy to inhale once they get the hang of it!!

something more substantial would be better, for instance a chicken wing/breast quarter with the wing attached. it just gives that much bigger a chunk to encourage proper crunching up before swallowing...
if you only give the odd one a week, then I probably woudlnt adjust the normal food intake unless she is on the porky side...however if you were to give one a day then I would recuce the amount...it depends on how much she weighs as to how much you would feed/reduce by etc...
