I have a pair of ducks that I got a couple years ago as ducklings (someone bought them and couldn’t take care of them so I took them). The hen is a mallard and the drake is a pekin, and since spring is here, he’s once again become very eager to mate and aggressive towards me. My biggest concern right now is that he is over breeding the hen. Im beginning to realize that she doesn’t always want to mate but has no choice because of his size. She’s much smaller than him and the only hen he has to mate with, so I’ve had to separate them now. My challenge now is making sure both ducks have companions after being separated. I would get another drake but I’m afraid mine would be aggressive. The hen will still live in my chicken flock, but the male will be lonely unless I find him a drake that gets along with him. Does anyone know how this might play out?
