Hi folks,
I have 11 ducklings 2 months old. Just starting to pinpoint who is who, quack vs rasp. I might go separate them one at a time behind the gate to see if I can determine a quack for help. lol. Anyway, someone suggested the best way to sell off ducks is to be as thoughtful as possible and sell one drake to each buyer only. Then either one two or three or more females per drake.
Before I was thinking about HOW to sell them, someone asked to buy them all and I agreed. Now I am having second thoughts. I hate to see the ducks troubled or the new owner.
So, I am in limbo for now. How soon will multiple drakes in a young bunch of 2month olds become an issue? They are still free ranging with mom and dad and I'm wondering if dad maybe keeps things in line for now as a dominant drake? He sure acts like it.
Anyway, the fella wants to buy mom, dad, and 11 ducks. He has an acre fenced in with a concrete pond, a coop with some young chickens that he is planning on using for ducks also.....hmmm
wondering what the guy's time frame would be for separating or selling extra drakes off
