Hello okay so I have two question,
First one. So I have 6 khaki Campbell ducks (1 male and 5 females) and I'm wondering, what's the drake to hen ratio? Should I get him some more girls? Or is this number fine?

Second question. I'm thinking about getting a few call ducks ( a drake and a few girls hopefully!). Can they live with the normal sized ducks? (The khaki Campbell's in the first one) without risk of injury? Or do they need their own home?

He should be a very happy boy. great ratio.

Having 2 drakes living together can be tough especially if smaller drake thinks he's full size. kinda like a mini dog thinking hes a rottie, they can get beat up pretty bad if the call goes after the KC's, It could work though if you have enough room for them to stay away from each other. And the Call drake has at least 3 ducks to keep him company. All you can do is try and if things start getting out of control give the Calls their own space. They can fly really well so if you plan on having them free ranging you may want to clip a wing to keep them home.
