Can Ducks Be Caponized?

[farmgirlsomeday]

As I read about the possible sexual aggression problems that can occur with a male duck living with hens (chickens), I am wondering whether for those wanting a pet duck, and who also have hens, it would be possible to take a male duck to the vet and have him neutered. I know that roosters can be caponized without much trouble. But what about ducks?

I am also curious about this. Any information in the last 2 years?

I joined just had the same thought about caponizing ducks myself but slightly for a different reason.
Has anyone ever found out or actually done so and is it the same process as for chickens? Can I use the same caponizizing surgical equipment?

May I ask why you want to Caponize duck?
