They're living with three other adults right now, so they are used to being around multiple ducks. They get handled every day and are used to human contact. I would feel worried about sending them off to a farm that isn't really interested in them.
Thanks for considering them, but I'd prefer if they went to a home with other ducks. They are very social creatures, and I'm not sure if chickens would cut it.

Here's what finalized my decision:

My little buddies are two years old. They were raised inside the house with me for the first year and basically never left my side. We have a very strong bond, but I can tell you that when ever wild mallards fly over or come to visit, they try their hardest to follow and fly away too. Its just...
