duck injured its bill

Looks like she might have gotten it snagged on something...idk what though. Should I try to clip the rest off or just leave it? she has been hiding her head also.

I'm no expert and the pic is a little blurry. I would probably leave it but keep her separated from others and in a clean pen to monitor. A better pic may help see what damage has been done.

One of my ducklings caught her bill on something when she was just a few weeks old. A corner of the front of her bill was missing completely. I couldn't believe how much blood there was at first!
I washed/flushed it with cool water and hoped for the best.

She's fine now.

As long as she can still eat and drink she'll probably be fine.
