If this thread has already been created somewhere and answered, I’m sorry for the inconvenience.
Today my approximately 4 week old Khaki Campbell broke one, possibly three blood feathers. I was very concerned when I noticed blood on my hands and droplets on the floor. I applied a little pressure with a paper towel once I found where the bleeding was coming from and it slowed down. I’ve checked in on the duckling and there hasn’t been anymore bleeding and it didn’t break off all the way down, maybe just midway.
Is there anything specific I should be doing? I don’t want the duck to experience any discomfort or pain, but I am new to raising ducks and I just don’t know what else I should be doing.
