Well, four went to one rapidly over the course of a week and a half. The smaller yellow one wandered off from Henrietta and it was a little off in the head I think, it acted funny. That happened three or four days after I got them. Then while I was on vacation last week, another one disappeared and never showed back up. Day before yesterday, after I had already interacted with them and made sure the last two were safely with mother hen, the third disappeared and has never been heard from again. Naturally I am wary of letting Henrietta out with the last one, as I don’t think she’s caring for them very well (she leaves them unattended quite a bit when treats are being given or when she’s eating), so she and Houdini (it escapes ALL THE TIME) are residing in the XL dog cage I have for brooding chicks. I’m going to look into getting mid size-adult ducks once Houdini gets a bit bigger for companionship since I know ducks are social creatures. I’ll post a pic of him/her shortly!
of course we need more pics to document it all. 
something is picking off my flock members one by one 
I don’t know what it is or how to stop it! I go out of state on Monday and won’t be back until next Saturday, and my state is on the brink of the worst heat wave of the summer. They free range and I don’t have a run set up/can’t build one in two days that will contain 35 chickens and one duckling.
