She's sitting tight might be more hatching under neathe.. Congrats hope the lil one starts to perk up soon. Like Orca said though they can scare the poo out of you looking half dead and all.
Your right your new ducklings can be trampled to death with 3 ducks sitting on the nest and tussling. I would again take the least committed out and put her back with the drake. She may not like it but your ducklings have a better chance of survival. it very seldom ever works out having more than one duck with eggs and ducklings, You've waited along time of these and they are very fragile at this stage. . Glad to hear the lil one has perked up.Thanks all! Sorry I didn't reply sooner, I'm in Australia, so time difference and all
The little one has perked right up now! Looking much better!
The only worry we have now is as 3 girls are pretty much sharing one giant nest, 2 of the girls are completely fine together, 1 of them however keeps trying to push another out of the way and they end up sitting ontop of each other. We're worried she'll step all over the ducklings and hurt them.
She's been the least committed to the nest of all so we tried putting her and our male out into another section where they could see them but not get to them while the other 2 took care of them. That worked for a few hours, but when it came close to bedtime she freaked right out. Kept throwing herself at the door of the enclosure and screamingSo we let them all back in together. Hoping it goes ok because were not really sure what the right thing is to do there!
