The ends of my ducks wing is bleeding.

Boy, they can be so catty lol. We're done with major breeding and egg-laying since we're going into fall/winter and mine have been picking on each other. Just like kids.

We've got a little property on 5 acres just down the road and we are fixing it up to live there. We just have to make do with what we have here till we get there.
In saying that, Dizzy and 3 ducks are using the outside toilet as a coup out the back. They share the yard with the chickens lol.

I would definitely keep the adults away from the ducklings until they can fend for themselves. At least you figured out what was going on and the culprit.

That's just it. They're only a couple of weeks older, not an adult duck yet.
So I have to keep the 2 month old ducks and older away from younger ones.

I'd definitely keep an eye on the wing chewer. That's pretty excessive. But, maybe once the feed issue is sorted out, some of this will simmer down as well. Of course opportunity is key too, that duck had the opportunity to do that and took advantage of the situation.

Thank you for all your advice and help.

This is the new temporary set up, keeping 3 separate lots of ducks. Youngsters locked in the brooder at night with free range during warm days.
The teenagers (that peck at the youngsters wings) have the 2 story duck pen which is locked at night.
Then there's Dizzy (dada drake) and Dingus ( mama duck) of all here. They also get locked up at night with a smaller free range area.
All have water pools. Scott trimmed the citrus trees after this video.
Hopefully this will stop the original problem.

Eventually they can probably be all together,but sometimes juveniles are brats.

Similar to how I keep mine when I need to separate. Which will start in Late Jan when the gander gets in full breeding mode. That's when my Muscovy get separated from the geese and Runners.
