Hi guys my duck broke his nails and it bleeds non stop what should i do?

Pack some cornstarch into it. That should help.

yah I would rinse it off first then use either sceptic powder if you have any, or corn starch. I think I would hold duck in my lap and pour a handful of the sceptic "stop bleed" powder or cornstarch into the middle of a dry washcloth and hold that on the foot for probably at least 10 minutes than see if it stopped. ( I have heard some ppl even used flour if they hadnt the other things )

then i would put my duck in a clean space so it doesnt get all muddy until it is healing up
