Call duck molting.. Should I be worried?

[Devildollx]

A few days ago my bantam duck Beans started leaving MASSIVE piles of feathers all over the place, numerous times a day. But they're ONLY down feathers, very few of her regular ones. I initially felt this was normal, considering the time of year it is, but the number of feathers she's losing is starting to make me wonder if I should be concerned that something else is going on..... She's leaving piles of feathers twice or three times this size probably 10 or 11 times a day right now:

Can you post a picture of the duck please. Also, for those of us with not so great vision, can you please not use such small text. I already feel old enough with just trying to read the regular size lol. (just pretend the smiley is wearing bifocals lol)

How often is she inside?

Looks like your from seattle, unless you had some freak weather and dropped way cold i think your duck will be ok.

She's an indoor bird, so she spends the majority of her day inside with me (unless she takes herself outside thru the pet door).

She looks perfectly fine to me. She's probably just going through a light molt. I have little down feathers all over the place too.
