Possible Wet Feather

Ducks rarely get parasites , they spend too much time in water for bugs to survive lol. I think you are right, molting! I once thought one of my runners had wet feather but she didnt either, she was molting . The nutridrench is a great idea, or "rooster booster poultry cell" is even better (to help new feathers grow in stronger and faster ) You can also try ti raise her protein intake a little, serve some scrambled eggs perhaps.
I do have a surplus of 5 dozen duck eggs, so that would be a good use lol - Maybe she is molting as she was laying daily and stopped 2 days ago and is using energy to grow new feathers. (Which for a Cayuga she’s laid daily since May - I think she’s trying to keep up with her Campbell
Sisters). If I put scambled eggs out for them all how many should I do for 3 girls? I’m going to TSC later today to grab a few more bags of pine shavings so I’ll grab rooster booster too!
