We have a duck's nest in a bucket on our balcony that is one story up from the ground. Should we move the bucket to ground level and when should we do that? If we move the bucket before they hatch will the mother duck find them?

Don't move it. She may not come back to it if you move it because she will then consider you to be a predator. They only put it where they feel safe. Most likely she spotted a predator on the ground, so that is why she went up a story (dog, cat, snake, even mice or rats will eat their egg)
I would not move it. The mother may never go back to the next if you move it.
it's illegal to move it-google it and you will see what others have done to baby-proof their balconies for hatchlings
