I'v had 4 pekin ducks who have growed up together, Now I have to get rid of 2 of them. Will they all be ok?

Question

I don't know if they get heartbroken or something along those lines. Im keeping a drake & hen and I'm getting rid of 2 hens. Any help would be great. Thanks

Answer 1

well........they will be a bit confused at the beginning........but they'll get used to it!!!!

Answer 2

they should be but i would not get ride of all of them except one

Answer 3

Ive had to deal with the same thing only it was peacocks,

and I watched the two that remained..a male/female pair.

They seemed to bond nicely together..and remain so

even to this day.  I have heard that if you leave a single

bird alone, they seem to suffer from 'pining' for the

company of another bird.company of the same species,

thus I have never left a single bird alone..

Seems to me that leaving two birds, especially a pair..

they will bond and be just fine.

Hope this helps a little bit, good luck to you and

your ducks.  =-)
