Too many ducks?

[BelovedBirds]

How many is too many ducks? What do you have?

theres no such thing as too many if they have enough space, food, etc.

But personally I will never have more than.... say, 20? I imagine.
Reason being, they matter to me as individuals, and the more there are, the harder it is to keep track of each individual, and their health!

Plus, all my ducks will always have names! And more than 20 is just impossible for me lol. For now I have two, but hopefully will be gradually building my flock from next year.

Great answer.

No such thing. Ducks = life. But only if you can give them adequate space and care. If I had the time and space, I'd love more than the 8 I have.

That said, I AM considering breeding geese, so I imagine I'll get my wish soon.

I have two Rouen, two Muscovy, 4 Call Ducks, 2 Mallard, 1 Mallard/Rouen, 1 Mule Duck and 2 Khaki Campbell. I can't get any more because of space and feed costs. I repeat, I can't get any more because of space and feed costs, I repeat, I can't get any more because of space and feed costs. Sorry, I am in Ducks anonymous and I am still trying to not get any more, lol.

Hubby forbade me from getting more ducks.

But he didn't say anything about geese or turkeys or guineas.

I have less than 40. I can't remember exactly how many, lol! And most of them have names.

That being said, I'm probably going to be downsizing after breeding season. Probably. It's expensive feeding this many ducks in the winter!

I don't have any bad habits except for ducks so all of my recreational money goes to them. They are eggzactly what I need. LOL

I think the reason that more of the planet's surface is water than dry land, is because G-d thought there was no "too many" when it comes to ducks...
