Worried about my geese acting out

[danielley101215]

Are your female ducks that are in with your ganders Pekin? It will most likely be okay for them to breed. My gander [Embden] mated with all the Muscovy females here for 5 yrs until I brought home a female goose for him. You do have to watch them when in the water though. Even now My Runners will get in the pool with my gander and I make him get out he is way too big for them. Chinese being smaller and weighing less shouldn't be a problem one on one. It's when they gang up things can get nasty.

Try letting them live side by side for a few weeks then put the female ducks in with your 2 ducks who have been recovering see how that goes if things go good after a few days try introducing the ganders into the mix. That maybe trickier.

No. The two that are with my ganders are one khaki Campbell and one blue Swedish female. Aflac is the only Pekin I have and he is the drake and is isolated with bubbles still as you know. What do you mean by let them live side by side?

With in different pens but where they can see each other. So they can all get use to each other. My gander and drake are mortal enemies but have half acre to stay away from each other it's only when they get in close proximity that problems can arise but thankfully they don't happen often. It's just that dog gone testosterone that gets in the way.

Or move your 2 females in with Aflac and Bubbles and keep them away from the ganders. You could maybe split the duck pen in half so the 2 females and Aflac and Bubbles can have some time to get use to each other again. It's just like introducing 2 new ducks into an established flock it takes time but can be done.

I'll take pics of the set up I have. Because they live at my school farm, I'll show you the gander and other duck pen. So you can give me ideas
