Goatwalker,
I am a former Marine and becoming a Marine will in the long run soften your heart even more to suffering. I would have a very hard time culling ducklings but I am the man of my house and if the situation came up it would be up to me. I feel for you, this is a difficult situation that is going to require good objective judgement on your part. You have recieved some very good advice on the technicals in this thread. In the end you are the one who has to make these decisions. Make the decisions and never question yourself on them, you are acting in good faith for the best interest of these creatures.
Best wishes
