Hurt duckling

[Nicksmamma99]

Found we have babies and this little one must have been attacked by the other hens we have in the coop. Is he savable or better to put him down?

Watch and see if he can eat and drink. A deep dish with his food will make eating easier. If he eats the bill will grow out in time.

Thank you. He is able to eat and drink. We are keeping an eye on him.

He’s young, so the chances of recovery are quite high! For being so fragile, chicks and ducklings are abnormally resilient! Best of luck! If the bleeding doesn’t stop try a styptic pencil. That thing works like magic!
