A guinea fowl got a blood spot on the wing. This happened after a chicken had the same thing happen. I use water both times and it seems to be gone. So guineas have a pecking order too? I have 14 chickens and 12 guineas in a brooder. I can't isolate tonight because early morning will be 38 degrees. Is this common to have a hurt wing?

Guineas are all about pecking order... How old are your Keets? Mine tend to duke it out over pecking order at about 2-3 months. Any mild injuries I see from that are scrapes to the head. if you have chicks and keets with wing injuries, I’d look for something in the brooder that they are catching on...

Thanks. Their age is 2 weeks. I had them for a week. They have nothing they are catching on. They peck each other's wings. Nothing metal in the brooder. Nothing sharp. Except for pine shavings. Just a little bit of water. The blood doesn't return. Today it didn't die.
