We have 2 female pekin and 1 male pekin. 1 of the females started laying eggs and laying on them. They just hatched over the weekend and we are not sure if we should remove the other female and male or leave them be. We had 10 hatch and are also worried there may not be enough room for them comfortably since we have seen the male step on the ducklings and not have a care in the world. He does seem to try to protect them when the dogs get close to their fence but he always seems to step on them. The mama is very protective so we do not want to upset her however we don't want to find dead ducklings. We have another space we can move them to but should we move just the female and male? Will moving the ducklings and mama cause too much upset for the mama?
We were not prepared for these ducklings as we didn't think they would really hatch... especially 10 of them!
