Saxony breeding

[northeastguy]

I just got 10 saxony ducks from holderead. I was wondering what your breeding arrangements are. I read that each male can require 3 females. I haven't sexed them but ideally I would like to propagate two lines if possible.

I will be interested in this as well since I will be getting some Saxonies from Holderread as well(only 4 though).

I keep 8 girls for each drake and fertility runs very high. The boys are very possessive and will pick fights with each other. A 1 to 3 ratio is a dream with Saxonies. Having a 1-3 will stress out the girls and their fertility will go down. I would shoot for at least a 1 to 5 ratio.
