I had 2 Pekins and 2 Mallards. Male and Female on both sides. Male Mallard last at 6 weeks and Female Pekin past last Tuesday. Will my Female Mallard and Male Pekin still mate and produce eggs?

if a pekin drake tries to mate with a mallard hen he is going to kill herI had 2 Pekins and 2 Mallards. Male and Female on both sides. Male Mallard last at 6 weeks and Female Pekin past last Tuesday. Will my Female Mallard and Male Pekin still mate and produce eggs?
wait can you post pics of them? many people think their rouens are mallards. if your hen is a rouen they’ll be okay matingThanks for the reply! How could I stop him from trying?
then they will need to be separatedCan't post pictures now it's night time here. But I know for sure she is a Mallard
please don’t kill your drakeWell, that is a very large drake for your hen. But ducks are social animals and need other ducks to interact with. Has he ever tried to mate with her? How old are they? You don't need a drake for your ducks to lay only if you want ducklings. If you like the eggs get a few more female ducks and figure out something for the boy, maybe find him a new home or get him a drake pal, or eat him if you can bring yourself to do that.
