Now she's quacking at night..

[KikiDeAnime]

Don't they breed in water? I was thinking that she quacks at night since she is lonely. Ducks are social creatures

She's not by herself, she lives with the chickens.

She's not by herself, she lives with the chickens.

Well, she's still technically 'by herself'
She should be with other ducks. Maybe she doesn't want to be with chickens. You said she is limping? Does she seem hurt? I don't know what to tell you.. maybe just put her with the drake and see how it goes? Or just deal with the quacking?

I guess I can just let them be and if he kills her, there's nothing I can do. It seems I'm the only one concerned about her staying uninjured but oh well.. I should listen to the people on the internet...

You're the one asking for advice. We are just giving advice as many of us have had ducks for years. You don't have to listen, it's your duck. You do what you feel is best. The duck is obviously quacking at night for a reason. We're trying to help you figure out 'why'
What do you want us to tell you? What answer are you looking for?

 

[chickens really]

I did leave them alone for a day, she was limping and had bald spots

Your putting human emotions on a couple of Ducks and sorry your not understanding the behaviour.

Don't get upset because you have to learn a few things first about Ducks..

She's back in with him. He has her pinned down and she's struggling to get away but I'll just let them be since it's normal

Again, pinning down is normal, but if it's to the point of injury as you mentioned (or there is a large size difference between them) then it is not safe for them to be together. We are not there. You are the best judge of this.

Also living with chickens is not the same as living with other ducks. A dog living with cats is not the same as living with another dog. A person living with monkeys is not the same as living with other people. While there may be some similarities, they are different species with different languages, different social structures, etc.

He first has to dominate her and get her to submit to him. No duck breeding is pretty..

And he's pulling feathers off her but I'm going to help her. He still hasn't let her up yet but oh well.
