Co-parenting?

[TrystInn]

We had three Khaki Campbell ducks share a nest this year, taking turns by rotating one duck out to eat and drink while the other two brooded. Now, the little darlings are hatching and the ladies seem to be continuing with their co-parenting (or is it tri-parenting?) duties.

Anyone else experience this? If so, were there issues, things we should keep an eye on, etc.?

I would just monitor them, but it seems to be all fine from the picture. They seem to enjoy shared duty, which seem to keep them relaxed. It always good when they are not stressed out.

We have 2 sharing a nest...although it's now turned into 2 nests and they are squashed together! They seem happy with it.
