yes, he will mate her and produce crossed babies
its not ideal and with him being so much larger he could hurt her

Hi , I have a question... my young duckling has been having the weirdest head twitches and he's been very nervous and restless on top of all that.. he's drinking lots of water but not eating as much as he usually does.. he seems to be having something like night terrors , to where he'll be laying down resting and then out of nowhere jump up out of his sleep quaking like he's screaming really loud and jumping all over the place... I don't know what is going on with my little guy but it's got me worried sick and I don't know what to do.. please any suggestions would be wonderful!

and they could be fine too, i have no idea

can you take it to a vet?

how old is it, how long has it been acting like this, what type of bedding, any time spent outside free-ranging

the more details you can give the better
