What types of ducks do u prefer? (Im thinking of getting Pekin)
How many hens do you get per drake? Is it a one to one ratio
What’s ur duck coops look like?
Can they stay outside if they have a little shack to get out of rain and wind?
Can u let me know on anything to raise ducks

I like all ducks. My half runners half Pekins are my favorites
You need 3 to 4 hens to each drake. Drakes are hard on the girls.
Mines a horse stall but there are many good examples of smaller coops on here
They need a secure place at night or they will be eaten.
Buy Storeys Guide to Raising Ducks by Dave Holdereed and read it through about three times.

Thank you! Is 18% all flock good adult duck feed? And for ducklings bits chick feed right?

 

[Magnolia Ducks]

Best to have duckling feed for ducklings. If you use chick feed be sure to supplement lots of niacin. Ducks have a much larger requirement of niacin.
