I bought several mixed flock of ducks 8 weeks ago. Three were pekin and one turned out to be a drake. So I went out today set up my processing station to cull the extra drake I have. I have the kids catch him from the flock and bring him to me. This normally unfriendly duck starts preening my hair and whispering to me. I hold him a bit and tell him he just can't stay. My husband laughs and tells me hes a big boy and could make some nice fat babies if I let him live. So I take the preening duck and put him back and gather all my supplies up and put them away. On his way back to the flock he looks back and I swear laughs. Evil little duck.

Smart duck!
 
Today he is back to his normal run from me self. I told him hes lucky hes such a big pretty boy or today it wouldn't phase me to eat him. But I figure keeping a pekin male will provide me with big meaty mixes. Not sure what I am going to do with the 2 other drakes I have. Neither are a meat type breed. I guess juet some more females for them to ward off them worrying the girls too much.
