I have 2 one-month old Pekin ducks. This morning when I checked on them, one (Skeeter) was lying on it's back looking almost dead. I removed the other duck (Pippa) and then held the injured duck until it perked back up and then seemed to be fine. A while later, I found Skeeter on it's back again with the Pippa standing over it. I am not sure if they are males or females because they still "Peep" but your forum seems to indicate they are too young to be mating if they are opposite sex.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal for 2 ducks that have been raised together and have so far been the best of friends? Should I keep them separated? I am worried that the one might kill the other.
Thanks for any help.
