How old are they?

Ducks have very powerfull sexual drives, they get frustrated and can even get cross with each other during mating season

They were born September 16 2019

Okay so they are mature adults then, its probably not enough space and horomones

Would you say it’s normal and not to worry or should I separate them

A little bit of fighting between males housed together in spring is a given, but if they are physically beating each other down and drawing blood it may be time to separate them, so they can see and hear each other, but can't touch.

Okay right now I don’t think it’s that serious but if it gets to be I will do something
