so i have 2 rouen ducks and they are both starting to have little specks or green on there heads. and we think they are males becuase that is what someone told us. but we only have 3 girls and one of them is already hurt so now we are not sure what to do. should we keep the boys or get rid of one or both? we dont want any of our hens getting hurt so what should we do? please help!

I would keep them untill they start to mate then get rid of the more aggressive bird.

Nobody will be dead when you get back. If They have not stated mating its probably fine.

Sometimes females will have a bit of green on the tops of their heads. If it's all around their face then it's a male. I would try to voice sex them though.
By then you'll probably be able to tell the gender. Unless one of the males is being to aggressive you won't have to worry.
