Hi there. I have two ducklings I am watching for a friend. One is brown (don't know the type) and one a Pekin. The yellow Pekin started to gnaw/over-groom his wings and back area until it is all red and a little bloody. He reduced this and is back at it. What could the cause be? I am so worried about him. He looks uncomfortable like a sunburn. I am using a lamp to keep the box at 95 degrees but it is a good 18 inches away from him. I also wondered if he has lice or mites but I don't see any and he has been in my care since he was one day old.
Thank you for any advice. I want to do anything I can to make him feel good and be healthy.
