I have a broody Blue Swedish. She had been sitting on her clutch for a few weeks now and I didn't think anything of it because she's done it before (and nothing hatched). I came out yesterday, and she was tending to a just hatched duckling! So far, three more have hatched. She has more eggs under her so I'm worried about how many more there could be!

The father is a supposedly an Indian Runner, though I think he's mixed with something else so these ducklings are a Heinz 57 haha.

Anyways, I've kept her and the babies separate from the three other ducks I have. I put a little dish of water and some starter feed in with her and I've been letting her do her thing. Are there any suggestions or advice for this situation?
