Broken wing?

[Birdieman92]

Got 2 ducklings in run with 4 chics. Is this a broken wing and if so, will I need to pull it? Seems like it would hurt like hell

You mean broken blood feather? Or broken Wing?How’d it happen

 

[Birdieman92]

Sorry, her wing is good, it does look like a feather problem. I have no clue what happened, came home to a bloody wing

Happens some times, pin feathers bleed a lot and are easily punctured. Is it still bleeding as of now?

Looks like it has stopped, but she is in a run with 4 chics and they are cut throat....

I’d remove the ducklings from the chicks you right chicks can be awfully cruel. Might be an eye next.

If the chicks are pecking at her, she needs to be moved asap.

Chics are roosting for the night, going to evaluate her tomorrow and make a call. Hopefully clean her up, put some spray on and she is good to go

Another thing is chickens are drawn to blood so hopefully they haven't started eating on her yet.

Looks like it has started drying up, chickens don't seem too interested
