Injured and potentially sick female duck :( need advice!

@Miss Lydia and @Jpat both give good advice. They have helped me with one of my pekin ducklings. Nutritional Yeast and B Complex will always be in stock at this house! I hope yours gets well very soon!
Just FYI, nutritional yeast is hard to find around here in any stores but I ordered some online last night on Amazon and it's going to be here tomorrrow!
 
I have a drake that is either rough with the girls or the girls are fragile. I always have at least one with a bleeding neck. I separated them for about 2 months. They slept separated and during the day I would let them out at different times. It was a pain in the rump and the rough drake would just hang out outside their run the whole time he was out. At night he slept next to the fence next to the hens and they stayed right by him. He just couldn't get to them because of the fence. We were a minute away from calling a friend to see if he knew somebody who would take him.

One day we decided that we can't keep them separate all the time and turned them loose. They were doing okay until last night and one of my little girls came out with a bloody neck and eye. I want to clobber him. The weather turned pretty warm this last week and I don't know if that fired him up again or if he is just going to always be rough when he is mating. Any ideas other than a roasting pan or a new home?

Sounds like an awfull cross duck. Those hens are at a great risk, weve seen them blinded and killed on this forum. selling could make him someone elses problem, he could make a good candidate for supper mabye
