That's from the roosters (mating)Should my ducks feathers look like this? He is 4 weeks old with a healthy appetite. He acts like a happy duck but his wings look like this. The others that hatched with him dont look like this at all.
Thank you.That's from the roosters (mating)
It's completely normal
This is a four-week-old duckling. I doubt there is mating being done by a Rooster, and if there were, one would likely see superficial skin injures - in the pictures, there are only pin feathers.That's from the roosters (mating) completely normal
Thank you. It was pin feathers as I noticed all the other ones are getting them. But now one duckys feathers are sticking out. Is this angel wing? It doesnt seem to hurt. He still likes to sit on my lap and let's me touch them.Please describe what is abnormal about the picture. All I can see are pin feathers which are a natural occurrence and simply indicate a growing feather.

Even in the case that a rooster was to be mating with a duckling, that would not be considered normal in any scenario.
Just looks like a junior getting his first set of quills in and the feathers are coming in I don't see anything wrong there I have some in the backyard right now they look just like thatPlease describe what is abnormal about the picture.
