You can pen them in different pens or cages, but it most likely won't make a huge difference.
If they happen to mate, all you need to do to prevent babies is eat the eggs instead of letting them hatch.
Do your ducks lay eggs now? If so, what do you do with the eggs?
So I purchased three female ducks and no males because I don't want any babies. My cousin also purchased ducks and she got two males. So she's going on vacation and asked me to care for her them when she's gone which will only be like 2 weeks. I don't want our ducks to mate especially because I have the females and I will be one who will have to care for the babies which I am not ready to do. I can't really keep them apart because I only have one area outside where I keep them and i don't have fences or gates or anything. The breeds that they are btw are white layers and black swedish ducks. Is the fertility rate high for ducks in general? Should I be worried about them mating if they are not separated? Please help!
