Hi other duck lovers,
I have not posted here for a while now, long sad story. But I have 4 drakes that are always fighting when they're in the pond since it's mating season. They're also getting new feathers that are really pink, I just read why. Today when they came up to eat I noticed one had small blood droplets. I did see another post about the cause. But if It doesn't stop bleeding, will I definitely have to pull this feather? Of course I won't be able to do it I'll have to go to the vet, he's too crazy for me to try to work on him. But I also would prefer not to have to do this since I read that it will hurt him. He already picks a fight with me every chance he gets.
Appreciate any thoughts.
