So the infamous »Triple Duck Burger«!O
our Hershey has been in that situation. Poor little K/C with a Pekin Duck on her and our version of Ralphie on top of the Pekin.
Did Hershey made it out in one piece?

Like here with Katharina: She is one of the smallest ducks, but even the largest drake (Brownie for now) bows his head and steps aside.Yes. It is something that has happened more than once. Funny thing is that Hershey is the top duck of the little flock. She shared that position with Rou while she was alive.
Its that time of the year - summer is coming to an end and the ducks are molting. My white Layers look more like brown mudders and yes, a lot of hard molting at the moment.That used to happen here a lot. Right now things are kinda screwed up . The Rouen is in a hard molt. The Pekin has not layed an egg in two months , and Hershey is still her sassy self. Bandit gets in the pool and no one wants to join him the last few days. Hershey has been doing her fake broody stuff too.
That is the sweetest noise I’ve ever heard a duck make. Makes me wanna kiss her little face off.In theory, yes… - I have no experience with broody hens, how much resistance are you facing when you are approaching a broody hen? And if not resistance, how sweet can a broody hen be to convince you not to take away her eggs? - I don't have it on video, but in the video below you can see Pinball Duck asking not to be removed from her nest and trust me that little song is nothing compared to her desperate crying when i approached her for the first time. My attitude melted away like butter in a hot Texas summer day...
I. Just. Could. NOT. DO. IT!!! - So there are now four ducks added to this world, now 2½ months old and sooo sweeet! Especially those young drakes, unfortunately...
Well hopefully since he’s just going through his teenage/first hormonal rage it will pass soon. My two Cayuga drakes only chased my girls for a month trying to mate so I just kept the separated by 3 foot fencing panels but they are already over females now so everyone can hang out now without too much craziness. Last night was their first night left unattended and I still have 9 ducks this morning So hopefully your raging dies out soon!!Weeeelllll now! You don’t say! And I don’t like what I hear, cause it sounds like Ralphie is following your numbered list. Oh.My.Lord! I’m a tad on the worried side now. I’ve been thinking his actions probably weren’t really on the sweet side. I’m just a dumb duck newbie and have been seeing some actions as sweet and not for what they actually are. As a matter of fact, today Ralphie got in several confrontations with the chickens. The majority of them were him chasing the chickens, however, I did catch my Rhode Island Red hen attack him once. He shook his head and went right on about his business, seemingly unaffected. Please keep your fingers crossed that Ralphie Dux stays on the straight and narrow!
Lmao try 5 drakes 0 girls. It really was the year of drakesWait, when you try hatching out ducks! - The last two years were the years of the drakes, just ask @Magnolia Ducks and @Texag87 . I was just lucky with Katharina last year, three drakes and four girls. After that
Oh Lordy, not really. No New Ducks!Prepare for the fact that this will not be your decision!!! - One of your ducks will convince you to let her sit. Or she will find a spot where you cant find/reach her (deep under the porch, for example), collect her eggs there and go u-boat…
You’re confused? I’m really confused, but that shouldn’t be a shocker. It isn’t to my family anyway.Waitasec: If Ralphie is already Anti-Antifa, wouldn't that make Petey Anti-Anti-AntiFa? Or Pro-Antifa? - I'm confused now!
