Last season I acquired two female goslings, 2 buff ducks and 3 straight run Cayugas. Of course, all three Cayugas are male. I have just had a dozen straight run ducklings thrown in my lap recently (now 3-4 weeks old) and expect to have further issues with an excess of males.
I know that I need to keep males separate for the entire spring season to avoid over breeding of the females. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a solution.
Does anyone have experience keeping the males separate for the season and then returning them to the same duck area? Would I be better off just culling/finding homes for the males?
Any and all ideas are appreciated!
