Probably constipated. Balrogs were well known for a low fiber diet.

The ostrich has wings too.

It was falling down a shaft and tumbling at the same time while fighting the most badass wizard in the world. Perhaps: 1. It never got into a position to flap its wings? 2. The space was too narrow to fly? 3. Gandalf prevented it somehow? 4. He was too busy fighting to manage it? Those are my best guesses.

Because Gandalf had ahold of it. (that's the explanation from the book)
