Female duck with wound -- please help with questions

[CoriM]

Is it possible that she's had her feathers pulled by one of the drakes? I have a female who pulls feathers on my other females and before I realized that I spent hundreds at the vet trying to figure out what was going on. Attached is a photo of my duck with feathers pulled where I thought she had been wounded somehow. Just a thought. I hope your duck finds a happy home with some other females!

How’s your duck doing?

Update: I have great news. I treated the wound with Bacitracyn and it's healing beautifully. The wound is barely visible at this point and the feathers are already starting to grow back.. Woot woot!

She's going to her new home on Friday evening.

Thank you all for your help! I really appreciate you taking the time.

Boy, I wonder if that's what happened. That wound looks very similar!
