Hello from Quandary Quackers

Welcome to BYC. Unless you separate the excess males from the hen, it is very likely that she will be drowned as they gang breed her. It is a reality - sad but true.

Good luck with your ducks. Sorry I can't help you with this...I have never kept ducks before. But sounds like lots of good info has been provided here.

Enjoy BYC!

My ducks swim in a lake all day. My fenced in run is pretty small and is only used for feeding before they go into the coop. Should I have the pairs "take turns" for who gets to be on the lake each day?

I think this would be easier if my ducks lived in a large fenced in run like many other flocks do, but I'm fortunate that my back yard is literally a lake.
