My call duck hatched 11 babies two days ago. I just peeked in on them and saw her pecking and chase the little ones away when they tried to lay close to her. Now I’m worried. I turned on the heat lamp for the babies so they can stay warm. But does this mean she’s not a good mom? So far she hasn’t hurt them. I’m not sure what to do.
Should I separate the Mom from the babies?
There is another call duck in the same house hatching eggs right now. The first Mom’s babies tried to get close to her and she attacked them. I understand that since her eggs are hatching but I wonder how she will be with them once her babies arrive.
I’m new to ducks and really need help!
