Actually a thought I toyed with was doing the ducks normally and then only having a batchelor flock for chickens. Problem is I'm already too attached and invested in some of these ladies.

Okay do you have them as pets? I have only outside snakes and would like to keep it that was.

Butchering your female ducks too?

No, continue to raise/keep male and female ducks, but only male chickens. I just love roosters, and I prefer duck eggs over chicken eggs now.

I don't think I'd be as happy though. I don't really interact with the boys, I just let them do their job. The ladies though are much more social.

 

[Miss Lydia]

They are that. I love my boys but I like the close relationship I have with my hens.

How about snakes wanna talk about them?

That's better! I am not bothered by snakes as long as I see them before I step on them.

 

[Miss Lydia]

Here too. I like to know where they are.

Don't you start talking about danger noodles. They're my one weakness.

I've got a beardie Her name is Caramel. I've had her since she was just barely as long as my index finger.

They are, unfortunately, one of the most abused types of reptiles. Mainly because they are so popular as pets, but people don't bother to do the proper research before getting them, so they keep them in tanks that are way too small (40 gallon breeder is the bare minimum) or keep them on sand (never should be kept on sand) or don't get the proper lighting for them (they need UVB lighting set up a certain way) or don't get the vitamins and minerals they need, etc etc.

I was laughing to myself while you all were going on about cockroaches, because I have a breeding colony of cockroaches under my bed Dubia roaches, for Caramel. And the birds get to eat all the extra males, too.

Here she is:
