I have one pair of week old pigeons. Today another pair of parents with eggs began pecking one of them enough to draw blood. I have not had anything like this happen before and I'm not sure what to do. Any help or advice would be welcome.

some parents abandon or stop feeding scalped babies. I have had some scalp their own when I cleaned the nest box before weaning. Unfortunately its apart of the hobby, some breeds are more territorial than others.
There is feed out there for handfeeding but I found that you can make a mash of pellets and force feed them til the crop is full. As well as small grains and water. I would for sure clean the babies head.
