Keep Mostly Drakes (If Eggs Aren't Priority)
4
Solution
If egg production is not the primary goal, consider keeping only male ducks (drakes) or a flock with very few females.
Explanation
Drakes are significantly quieter than females. A bachelor flock of drakes can coexist peacefully if raised together or introduced carefully, providing duck companionship without the loud quacking of females.
Notes
Drakes can still fight, especially if females are nearby or introduced later. Adequate space is important.
