Sad decision

[Memgold121]

we had to make the decision yesterday to rehome one of our male ducks. He is just plainly going to kill our female. Yesterday he grabbed the females head thur the fence i have up to seperate them, and was drowning her. So any suggestions/vibes would be great right now

We've all had to get rid of birds in the past at some point, never fun when you enjoy them- keep in mind they're just birds and in your case sounds like he may have taken out your female at some point. So right thing to do.

@WVduckchick I'm not a duck guy, but sending you my best wishes!

It’s not easy for any of us who look at our ducks as pets, but then again it’s our responsibility to protect our females to so that helps some when we have to make the decision to rehome. I’d say most of us on this forum have had to do this and understand how you are feeling right now. We have a rehoming forum here on BYC place him in it and also your state thread. All the best.

We have a place for him with someone who has only females so that makes me feel better. They just can't take him today with the holidays

It's sad but it can work out really great too for everyone.

I recently had to re-home my Patches and did so to a member on here who's about an hour away. Her Pekin drake died during a surgical procedure and his mate was devastated.

He is loving life and living large with his new family and "wife". They are wonderful people who are totally enjoying and taking great care of him. He is one happy little runner drake loving his plus-sized girl.
