Help, too many boy ducks!!!

[DuckyDonna]

I do not have that ability.

Thankfully, as MOST people don't! There are other optioins as you have seen. Just be patient and one will come along so the poor drakes don't have to be killed!

Reality is culling sometimes us needed..Selling or putting Drakes down is sometimes a better option if selling doesn't work...

And reality is also that not everybody wants to butcher their birds! Waiting a bit and trying other options is better for those of us who don't use "culling" as our first "go-to" option! Geeze really! Why are you so gungho on killing? And you always seem to be!

thank you! i agree with you! i don’t think drakes should be put down just for being drakes.

Thank YOU! I'm so tired of the resolution being "culled" with "certain people"!

I’m tired of reality not being mentioned....Drakes can be terrible and sadly yes eating them or getting them off your property is needed. Doesn’t matter how a person does it..

 

[Miss Lydia]

Reality is many of us see our ducks as pets and killing them is like killing one of our pets. Nothing wrong with someone processing their drakes and eating them if they can do that. But nothing wrong with not wanting to do that deed either. There are alternatives and the op is working on them. We’re here to offer all alternatives and to support the ops decision.

Culling doesn't mean killing all the time incase you didn't know that.
It's the term to remove any unwanted livestock.

No body knew that, Why wouldnt you have been more clear?

Every dictionary and encyclopedia has a different definition

in this specific instance do you mean kill cull or gently segregate from the main population cull?
