So this is my first experience letting mom do what nature intended. I've seen some behavior that I can't quite figure out on my own. First of all, I'm finding newly hatched ducklings all over the floor of the coop! And mom is making no attempt to get them back to the nest! If i try to put them in the nest for her, she begins pecking at the poor babies! I also went out to check on the progress of an egg that is zipping, and all of a sudden mom begins pecking at the egg...and then she picks it up & throws it out of the nest! Yes, I know...lots of exclamation points. Lol. Is this normal behavior or do I have a psychotic mama duck?
