Hello, I found my female mallard deceased this morning. I have no idea what happened and I'm very distraught. That leaves my male Cayuga alone. He's already very lost without her (she was definitely the leader). What's the next step?
1.) Find adult female or 2
2.) Adult male or 2
3.) Raise 2 more ducklings
*How do you introduce new ducks?
* What breed would be best?
*I know males with females will fight. Will they fight when there's no females? Will they be less likely to chase my dogs with no female?
* How do you socialize a new duck to be friendly to people?
I have lost my social butterfly. She came to the back door to get snacks and visit.
Thank you for any help or suggestions!
