Breed vampire ducks?
Anyone thinking about breeding vampire ducks should have some concerns. Valdimir Duckula's foster father, gives advice on what to consider / consider. So think carefully.
*************************************************************************
Dear Mr. Karl Janssen,
When I visited you recently, I met your adorable little vampire duck. Now that I am an experienced poultry farmer, I would like to learn more about these and their attitude, because I am thinking about starting to breed these rare specimens. That is why I am asking you the following questions.
1. Where do you get such ducks or how do you get them?
Copies up?
2.How big does a barn have to be for you? How big is your space requirement?
3. How is your attitude?
4. What about nutrition?
5. At what age are they sexually mature? So that you can get one
Breeding of this breed can begin?
6. Is there anything else to consider when breeding vampire ducks?
Thank you for your answers.
Sincerely yours,
A. Henne (Board of Poultry Breeders Association)

Dear Mr. A. Henne,
I have to admit your concern has me with some surprise
fulfilled and I would like to answer you to the best of my knowledge and level of knowledge.
To question 1.
Vampire ducks are a rare species of poultry, as you can see.
I got to know Vladimir during my captivity as a soldier in Romania.
According to him, most of this family can be found in Eastern Europe.
But there should also be scattered which can be found in Spain or Scotland.
I just want to mention that it is not possible to find a kind of "wild catch" because it is mostly are domestic and very close to home. Vladimir was just a victim of the war that you saw in his Country no longer tolerated.
To question 2.
The attitude of a vampire duck is very extensive. You shouldn't offer them a stable as accommodation, because it would trigger their displeasure and anger. A fairly young single copy is content with a furnished children's room. Depending on your habit, you should either use it as a bed Offer a cot or child's coffin. As far as the demands of the facility are concerned, this is individual. To make sure you have a happy vampire duck, you can claim one compare human child. This should serve as a guideline. The only thing to consider is that the period far exceeds that of a human child.
Question 3.
Your attitude prepared some claims. A vampire duck not only prefers human clothing, but is similar in its aspirations and ideas to that of a person. That means they have a wish
after education and after developing her personality in all possible facets. So it may be that she develops interest in visual arts or performing arts and live it out want. But you should remember that such a being is very lively and often has a speed that the human eye can no longer track.
to question 4
As the name suggests, a vampire duck is a vampire.
Which feeds on blood. Here you can also take the "vampire finch" living on the Galapagos Islands as an example. But since a vampire duck is larger than the finches mentioned, you have to assume a higher demand. It is advisable to ensure this food every day, although a vampire duck can go without it for a certain period of time Food, but if it stays out longer, you have to expect a potential for aggression and that it will take care of its own food. Since you do not assume every copy That this can be satisfied with the hunted of mice and rats, it is quite possible that there will be trouble with the neighborhood or that one day you will even get a police report. So a supply of fresh blood should be provided.
CAUTION! One should be careful not to allow the vampire duck to drink the blood of oneself, least of all not to run out of their blood afterwards.
Although this (theoretically) increases your life expectancy, it increases the likelihood of a fatal sun allergy. In addition, one assumes the eating habits of the vampire duck, which leads to further difficulties.
To question 5.
If you want to breed vampire ducks, you should not forget a lot.
- As already mentioned, pure-bred vampire ducks are extremely rare and capturing them and keeping them with them is almost impossible and not advisable in terms of possible aggressiveness.
- Mixed breed vampire ducks (old expression "bastard vampire" ducks) Like our Vladimir, they are much rarer, even among their peers they are considered an absolute exception.
- Vampire ducks cannot be mated like ordinary pets, but make very high demands when it comes to choosing your partner.
For a "breeding" you also need a (drake) vampire of this type, and an "ordinary" mortal duck. I don't know whether it could work the other way round.
With two purebred vampires you will not be successful because two "undead" cannot produce life. And even if you get a "mixed mating", the probability of offspring is extremely low to unlikely.
- If a child's room is still sufficient as accommodation for a single copy, one should assume that a couple wants to set up their own household. So you should give them your own house
Make available. Which, of course, has to be considered with every new generation. But maybe a larger farm or better a farm house would be a good solution to this problem.
- It should also be borne in mind that with every generation the need for food, i.e. blood, increases. As already mentioned, you should never ignore this if you do not want to conflict with the law. You should also consider that there are also vampire hunters. And it would be annoying if the family had been putting their work into such breeding for several hundred years and the result of this workis destroyed by a vampire hunter.
- The bitterness of such a vampire duck swings from specimen to specimen.
So that it is possible that you or your family will be the victim of such an attack. Even if our Vladimir is a harmless specimen of this genus, one should not generally take it away out.
Here I can only give as a recommendation to treat this being as kindly and lovingly as possible (just like your own child) in order to reduce the risk of an attack.
- It should also be borne in mind that vampire ducks normally reproduce in other ways. Which breeding would call "uncontrolled". This wording is correct.
It eludes any control and usually only spreads more snappy specimens.
- You have to plan a long period that spans several generations of a family.
A hybrid of this type has a very slow development. Sexual maturity is expected at 150 years what but does not mean that this is then immediately ready to mate.
To start from the couple of parents until further breeding with their young should be taken as a yardstick of a period of 200 years. The next generation would be ready in 400 years.
I can't judge how far your family is willing to plan as far in advance.
I hope I have answered all of your questions sufficiently.
Sincerely yours,
Karl Janssen (veterinarian)
Ps. Since our Vladimir has other future plans, this is a breed
not available.
Anyone thinking about breeding vampire ducks should have some concerns. Valdimir Duckula's foster father, gives advice on what to consider / consider. So think carefully.
