My impression is the other ducklings are hatching and they are under a chicken. Is this correct OP?
If it is, it will be much easier to put them under her as chickens are more "trancelike" at night and don't fidget. I've picked chickens up in the dark and they don't even move. My ducks wake anytime I go outside near the coop at night.
