Do I need to seperate my Drake?

[ziggywiggy]

When my Moscovy hen starts setting, should I remove the Drake? I know with turkeys you should remove the Tom.

i might just to be safe, you never know with animals.

I was worried about the same thing with my mallards but the drakes seem to know whats going on and protect their mates. I would just watch it an see how it goes.

I would move him . My pekin tryed to pull my hen off the nest to mate and smashed 3 baby's so he went to heaven.
