Why do I keep finding small amounts of blood in my coop?

wow you've got a great eye! I don't think I'd ever notice that, check their bills maybe right below?

I haven’t but I’ll check as soon as I can and I’ll let you know!

I did not! I will check in an hour or so! I didn’t see any new blood this morning luckily but I still don’t know why I keep finding it!! I’m bringing the food/water tray in too melt the ice today too! I wish it was warmer by you so your babies cold get some peas! Mine had peas yesterday! They gobbled them up like there’s no tomorrow

When mine were little and still in the brooder, I kept seeing the same thing in the bedding. It ended up being the back nails breaking off of a couple of my welshies. Still not sure from what, but that might be another thing to check on them.
After I replied to you earlier I went out and chipped the ice off of their water bowl, just in case.
And I cant deny my ducks their peas When it's this cold I put the peas in their water before i bring it out to them. I enjoy hand feeding them though, so as soon as it warms up again I'll be feeding them the frozen ones again

Me again I was just looking at another 'blood' thread...if you're not seeing any injuries on them, it could be from another animal, like a mouse or shrew that they ate

Sometimes with my chickens I see blood on the hanging feeder- though with them it's probably just their combs rubbing against it.

3 hens and 1 boy.
Only 1 hen is laying age she is a 7 month cayuga. She hasn’t laid an egg yet though.
