Duck Article Brainstorm Session!

[Tevyes Dad]

As a dirty old man putting in his 2 cents, the duck erotica topic sounds the best. Seriously, I don’t think most first time duck owners have a clue about it and what we should and should not do. Last week the KC drake on top of the Pekin hen followed by the runner drake on the Pekin hen followed by the KC hen on top of the Pekin hen was an eye opener. I was sorta prepared for this but what worries me is if they reverse this. I don’t know if the KC hen could handle it.

Darn - my ducks hate to be handled!

10 reasons to embrace living with a drake

I certainly can't be the only one who loves having a drake!

I have a runner drake named Sparky, I adore him. Wish he was a little less randy, though.

I'd like to write articles about:

• How to keep the duck swimming pool clean - without toppling it over daily and rinse it with a garden hose. More thinking about installing underground pipes, float valve and a solenoid drain valve.
• How to provide and endless amount of drinking water to the ducks and prevent it from freezing
• Spill free duck feeders with large stock
  
• How to scare away airborne predators
• Nestboxes for ducks

If had just the time to do it…

Here's what I have for keeping water from freezing - has worked great for 2 winters:

It’s okay now but it wasn’t at one time because of the medication they used the meds they use now are safe for waterfowl.

That's true - I did a lot of research and talked to a lot of people before I felt okay to buy this.

Hmm... higher than chickens? Perhaps this is another reason they tolerate the cold better.

Maybe I will write about ducks and cold climates instead.

I think that's a great idea -- many of us stress about our ducks in the winter.

I understand this one, my one poor KC has somehow become the drake's favorite, he is not huge, but quite a bit bigger than her. She holds her own, but isn't always happy about it. I'm hoping this spring she does better as she'll be older and bigger and stronger and I'm hoping I do not have separate anyone this year. 5 adult girls for one drake, you'd think they'd be ok...
