I have 6 adult Rouen drakes (male ducks) I am looking to rehome to pet home (no meat). I am located in Nashville but wiling to travel within reason if needed. I am also open to trading for females but need to balance this flock better. Any interest in these boys or resources to rehome them...

@thumper650 @ruthhope When you separate at night do you leave them with food/water? trying to figure out how to keep everything dry at the same time. Ive been separating with a puppy pen but some of them are crossing over so need to figure out if a dog crate would be better before they kill this...

Thank you! I tried exactly this last night. About to go check on them and see how it went but can separate even more if needed. Do you leave them food food and water overnight in their “bedrooms” or just during the day? Trying to figure out how to keep the mess down if I have to separate more...

Thank you!! I really hope so!

Oh thank you!! That gives me hope :-)

yes, I know that. they NEVER are together at all....just wasnt sure if them being around at all and my guys not having any females on their side of the fence could be contributing to why they are fighting so much

Morning! I brought home a bachelor group of adult ducks that needed a home a month ago. 2 jumbo pekin and 6 rouen. They will not stop picking on each other! I know they are working out their dominance issues and probably mating season is contributing, but one of the Pekins the back of his neck...

oh great! do they have other drinking water during the day or just the pools?

Trying to make my life a little easier and stream line the cleaning/mess. Currently we are using a baby pool for our 8 ducks and dumping/changing all the water daily. Thinking of getting a 100 gallon stock tank with a drain. How often do I need to change soemthing that size? Once a Week? More...

Thinking ahead to winter...I know its not even summer yet but Im a planner :)What do you do for water when its freezing and below? Normally we just unscrew our hosed from the spigot and dont think about it again until spring but now I need water at least for the water container if not...

love that! yeah, mine are safe here as long as they live :-)

How deep do you make the hemp bedding? And do you scoop it daily or turn it? How often. Do you totally clean out? Thanks!

They are! A sanctuary was having neighbor issues and having to rehome a bunch of their animals so we took some. Still working on getting them settled and to chill out because they’re figuring out the pecking order still haha 2 jumbo pekins and 6 rouens. I’ve looked into aspen shavings as well...

Hello I just got 8 adult drakes. They are in a shed I converted into a coop at night and free range in the yard during the day. Trying to find the best bedding that is the least amount of mess and work. Currently have a mix of straw and hemp but heard that’s going to turn disgusting quickly. All...
