    Mating season?

    They don't have a pool right now only their drinking water. I live in northern michgan and the pool would freeze right now. I've got the male posted where possible to find him a home.

    Mating season?

    Ok. I will start looking for a home for the second male then. I hope I can find one before they decide to start fighting and hurt or kill each other.

    Mating season?

    I am still new to having ducks. Mine aren't quite a year old yet. I found my first duck egg today. I have a female pekin, 1 male mallard, and 1 male rouen. I know I have to get rid of one of the males before mating season so that they don't kill one another over the pekin. I thought mating...

    Male duck question......

    The ducks are roughly 6 months old. I know the female just hit laying age last month. I would have to get rid of one of the males because my boyfriend let me get them so that we could have their eggs, he doesn't want all males.

    Male duck question......

    Gotcha. So just adding one more female won't work therefore I guess I will have to give the male duck away and just have 1 and 1 until I'm able to have the correct ratio.

    Male duck question......

    I meant separate the 2 males. Leave one with the female and put the other male in a separate pen until mating season is over. I would love to be able to add to my duck collection but we don't have the room right now.

    Male duck question......

    After listening to the audio my white duck is definitely a female. I know my other 2 are for sure males. 1 is a mallard and 1 is a rouen. What do I do with males? Do I separate them?

    Male duck question......

    I have 2 males and 1 female. My other duck (unsure of the sex died before they were full grown). I'm also not even for sure that my Pekin is a female. I'm just going by what i've read on here. But all 3 ducks have been together since they were ducklings!

    Male duck question......

    I was told by someone that because I have 2 males that one will kill the other in the spring time when mating season happens. Is this true? If so what can I do to prevent that from happening? Thank you!

    Breed?

    So if a Pekin has a loud quack it is a female? I'm a first time duck mom too and I'm still trying to figure out what gender my pekin is.

    Ducks diving for fish in their pool.

    I have a kiddie pool for my ducks right now and I would love to get a pool like this for them. But my only concern is the cleaning of it. How do you clean a pool that big? I know for human use you would use the chlorine system but I also know that isn't safe for the ducks.

    So I have a question

    Thank you! We aren't looking for ducklings just eggs. My boyfriend prefers duck eggs to chicken eggs.

    So I have a question

    This might seem like a stupid question but will my females still lay eggs if I don't have a male?

    Pekin Duck Club!

    I am a first time duck mom also. My white one is huge but tends to have an actual quack so maybe it's a female.
