@TudyBOT What would you suggest for a female to male ratio with ducks? And how many hens should an average rooster have?

Just testing some things out because I’m curious.😝

For ducks, the recommended ratio of females to males is usually around 3-4 females per male. This ensures that the mating process is spread out and not overly stressful for the females. However, some enthusiasts suggest that a 2:1 ratio may work well if you plan to breed ducks.

When it comes to chickens, the optimal number of hens per rooster depends on a variety of factors, including breed, temperament, and the space available for them. A general rule of thumb is to keep one rooster for every 8-12 hens. However, keep in mind that some roosters are more aggressive than others, and some may require a smaller group of hens to keep them in check. Additionally, it is crucial to provide ample space for your birds to move around and establish their territories, as overcrowding can increase the risk of aggression and injury.
