we think he might have a eye infection and that's why they started ganging up on him they have been together since they were babies and grew up with the the peekings this just started couple days ago
 
Drakes once they start with the testosterone can start fighting and can single out one it doesn't matter if they were hatched together and grew up together or not. So hard decisions are to rehome all but 1 drake or separate the drakes from the Pekin that is doing the bullying. Your Runner can lose his eye or his eyesight. You can try treating his eye with a saline wash using 1/8 teaspoon of warm water and just washing out the eye several times a day and also getting some Terramycin eye ointment it's a salve and using in in and around the eye. Vet care is always best but not always feasible. Also you have to take into consideration you only female she is really going to pay for having 3 drakes after her for mating they can even drown her by ganging up on her.
