    Breeding ducks Question

    Well I read wild ducks can reject the mating and expell the drake they dont want to mate with, but with ducks kept as pets, are they like dogs, can the females have eggs fertilized by both males. Tmi,I am sure, but a wild mallard mated with my mallard female and she expelled it from her...

    Breeding ducks Question

    I have a mallard and a rouen male with my female khacki, white crested and rouen ducks. Can a female duck have ducklings from two different drakes? Or will they choose one to accept and push out the other?

    The Duck Thread

    I just bail mine out with a bucket till its empty enough to flip. Get a heck if a workout , the only draw back is it floods the other side of the fence, which the ducks LOVE sticking their head thru and drilling in the mud :-)

    Rouen Duck thread

    My rouen male Rodger still has some baby feathers in his green head ;-) and he has pink spots on his feet. Thats why I kept him as a breeder, I could tell him apart from the other males :-)

    Rouen Duck thread

    This thread is not as active is all. I said they are huge in an ovation... My Rouens are big birds Other than that they are gentle, docile and very pretty in color. They are good seasonal egg layers but wont brood often.

    a My chicks first night outside with the ducks they had a practice night in a small kennel, just to transition them to be used to each other. 6 weeks today and I'm amazed at how fast they are growing and how different the fuzzier two are from the chunky two. I'm proud of my big girls!
