Is this much feather loss normal??

Hi my duck I think has been molting but she doesn’t have that many feathers left on her wings and I’m a bit concerned. My male hasn’t shed at all so I want to make sure shes not sick. She is recovering from a racoon attack also which happened about two weeks ago hence the wound on her neck.

Looks like molt to me. They will lose all those by long flight feathers then grow them back. She’s cute, glad to hear she lived through a raccoon attack

Looks completely normal to me. Her new feathers look like they are starting to come in nicely. Ducks will molt at different times, and some do a hard molt while others are more subtle.
