Do you have the problem of roosters mating with your ducks?
We have 5 bantam roosters, 4 of which WILL BE LEAVING just as soon as I can find someone to take them. Anyway, they KEEP mating with our ducks as well as our hens. The have torn the feathers off one of my hens around her neck so bad that I had to Blu-Kote her today and they have started doing the same thing to one of our ducks.
Can ducks produce chicks??? Or will those eggs NOT be fertilized? We are not trying to hatch any but just wondering?

What should we do short of killing all the roosters?
