I bet thats what happened she can not see very well so she runs into wire all the time and the turkeys peck her we will start putting neosporin on her bill we just got some for a duck with bumblefoot thank you for your help!I'm sorry to hear about your duck's bill.
My duck got a similar bill injury and we took her to an avian vet. They weren't very concerned. They wanted me to put antibiotic cream (like Neosporin without pain reliever), just a thin layer on the wound twice daily for about 3 weeks. They told me to keep it clean, and change her water and clean her bowls/buckets frequently.
My duck healed slowly, but when I brought her in for a check-up they thought she looked great. They also told me they thought she stuck her bill through the wires on her run/aviary and scraped it coming back in. Maybe that's what happened to your duck.
