Hi all ,
I've just realised my last hatch back in September has resulted in two male aylesbury ducks !
I therefore need 1/ possibly two females to keep them " company "
As I plan to rear some young ,
Ideally young bird , & local to me in Leicestershire or Northamptonshire

Any help please message me

Regards simon

Hi Simon, I'm not a 'duck person,' I expect someone else will come on with advice, but it think you would be in trouble if you tried to run two males with only 1-2 females. Bad luck about getting two boys from your hatch - could you possibly swap or rehome one of them and then get 3-4 females for the remaining male? As I understand it, the males will fight in the presence of females, even though they can live reasonably peacefully together as a bachelor pair, and if you have fewer than 3-4 females per one male, he will wear out their backs with too much mating and this really isn't fair on them.
