hi guys,

i was wondering, does anyone know why honeyd only provides emulated services for TCP but not UDP?

is it possible to make it provide emulated services for UDP?

Yes. See the first paragraph of the DESCRIPTION in the man page honeyd(8).

Most crackers try TCP attacks; UDP attacks are much less common.
Nonetheless, honeyd can simulate UDP just fine.
