Today when I went to feed my ducks I noticed there were quite a few feathers littering the floor, more than normal. They lose feathers occasionally but this was more than I'd seen.
There was no visible blood and it would be next to impossible for something to get in.
I was wondering if this is normal? As they are both black it is hard to tell what duck they came from, my male or female. I plan to do more investigating when I get home from work and look them thoroughly over.
Any thoughts? Is this normal molting? They have been loosing feathers on and off all fall, as this technically is my first year with ducks I'm not sure when and what is normal feather loss.
Thanks.
