Da' Cute and Cuddly Call Duck thread!

[Tevyes Dad]

I agree, two males should be perfect together with no females, they won't fight or be mean side there's no female to be concerned about

I wouldn't necessarily agree with that. Normally this is true, but if Wobbles was hatched without any other ducks around, he could have imprinted as a person. This would mean he would consider Amykins a female and might be very aggressive toward another male. Whereas Pancake would have at least seen Wobbles while growing up and would imprint with Amykins as "mom", but would know he was a duck and would know there were no females around. If Wobbles was paired with a female, if he imprinted as a person, he might not show normal interests in her, but would enjoy the companionship, and if he imprinted as a duck with Amykins just as "mom" all would be normal - either way, no harm.

My first Muscovy drake was imprinted on the woman I got him from and would attack anyone or anything that came near me, and of course he would try to show his affections towards me, lol.

sweet little Silas needs a kiss.

Sweet little Silas gets all kinds of love. He is going to be a house duck. Always sleeps on momma, has a special place in the family. He gets home made food and he has stuffed animals to play with. He follows me around the house and thinks my daughter is duckling.

aaah, that is wonderful. He's just a wonderful little innocent addition to the family.

Yes he is! We all love him so much even my siamese cat and he are friends, he will sleep as close as he can get. I never thought these two would be friends.
