Can I keep two male ducks all alone?

14 years ago

I have been reading everything I can, but haven't gotten the answer straight out. I am thinking about getting two male Cayuga ducklings and was wondering if they would be ok if I had them all alone. They wouldn't be with any females, not ducks or chickens, all alone. Anything would be appreciated!

They may turn to each other for affection :)

But if having gay drakes is OK with you, they won't mind.

I would think since there are no females to fight over they would be nice quiet pets.

You will be fine.... I started with Cayugas and they were males... got along just fine but be warned, lol, I now have almost three dozen ducks....I love them.... the cayugas are docile and if you get them young, they will just be buds.... good luck and enjoy them
