I'm concerned that Daisy is hurting Daffy while mating. I don't know if the results pictured below of Daffy's caruncles is normal/expected injury or is the result of Daisy being too aggressive in action and frequency of mating with her. When he mates her on the ground, he is always grabbing her caruncles instead of further down her neck and I am thinking it's because of how much higher up on her body he mounts while on the ground.
Daffy - Muscovy hen
Daisy - Silver Appleyard drake
Both same age - 7 months old
Have been mating for the last 2 months
I have witnessed Daisy mating 7x in 24 hrs
Most days, Daisy mates 4x - 5x
