Yes a pheasant can live with other species of birds. I have one that lives with several ducks, chickens, peacocks and turkeys. They usually don't get along well with other male pheasants though and will often fight to the death.
Yes, but chances are slim that they both will live together.
Drake is the name for a male duck. There are no "female" drakes. Female ducks are called hens.
Turkeys can be mean to chicken s
Yes,because the chicken and the duck is only one flesh.
I've found one male duck (drake) will be fine for quite a large amount of females (hens). You wouldn't want to have more than 2 drakes with 20 hens. ~BlackWolf1112
A term rooster is used for the male bird (the hen is a female bird) of certain species . There are chicken roosters and hens, pheasant roosters and hens, turkey roosters and hens etc. Ducks are drakes and hens. Geese are the "Goose and the Gander".
Straight Run Ducks are ducks which are (if ordered from hatchery) ducklings sent to you right after they hatch and they don't check what sex the ducks are so its a 50% chance they are going to either be a Drake (Males) or Hens (Females).
I think it is a duck.A drake is a male duck. Therefore, there is no such thing as a female drake. A female duck can be called either a duck or a hen; either is correct.
No. they are not trying to hurt them. The drakes see the hens as "their flock" they are all coming into mating age. They are trying to make the hens submissive. It will not result in anything but a few ruffled feathers and some loud quakes and clucks but they will catch on soon enough and stop bothering the hens. Getting a rooster will also put an end to the ducks confused cross species behavior.
The generic term for ducks of all species (male or female) is duck.All male ducks (no mater what the species) are called drakes.All female ducks (no mater what the species) are called ducks.All baby ducks (no mater what the species) are called ducklings.
Chicken hens are but wild turkey females are called hens to.
The answer to this question is both YES and NO. It all depends on the drake's agenda. During the mating seasons, the hen can be very picky on choosing a partner and often many prefer a drake that will protect them for as long as possible. For the "NO" reason: Most mallard ducks (about 90% of them) do NOT mate for life because the hen tends to turn her attentions away from the drake after she's laid her eggs in which the drake will feel left out and most likely leave her for another hen. Thus, the drake and hen only temporary bond until the hen's eggs are close to hatching in which the drake will move on and find another mate. The hen however is capable of looking after the ducklings without the drake, of whom she no longer cares for at this point. Although this gives the family a greater disadvantage for survival because some unrelated drakes may attack her ducklings in order to make her fertile whereareas in families contaning both parents, the father can step in fight off the attacking drake (or die trying). For the "YES" reason: However, there are some drakes that do stay to help protect the family and attack predators that may threaten the family until the ducklings are fully mature. These drakes stay because they feel that leaving the hen would only make them feel twice the loniless than the loniness they are already suffering. Though they assist the hen in watching the ducklings, they would do so from a distant because most mallard hens tend to be very aggressive and would not permit anyone, not even the drake, to go near the ducklings (the despite the fact that the father has no intention in attacking them). Though the female mallards may allow the drakes to watch them closely while she's off to fish herself some meal. Simutaneously, the drakes that stay with the family also prefer to maintain some personal spaces because he does not like being crowded by the noise of the ducklings under circumstances. Once the ducklings are mature and leave, the hen and drake may mate a second time to produce another family, thus continuing another mallard family cycle.
Female ducks are called "Hens" and male ducks are called "Drakes"
