We had two drakes born in April of this year. After a raccoon got in (malfunctioning door) and swiped one of our boys, we got two new babies that were about 2 months old. One ended up being a boy so I returned him for an older duck that was already laying. The older duck Karen and the existing drake Olive are thick as thieves. They are in looove. It was perfect. The younger female I kept Simone followed around Karen and Olive and everything seemed fine. The older two started mating a few days ago. I came out yesterday to find little Simone had drowned in the stock tank. I can only assume that Olive did that trying to mate her. Now he's becoming a fiend. I just witnessed him go after 3 different chickens. What do I do? Will he eventually get over this or do I need to start separating? They all free range during the day.
