    Welsh Harlequin

    I actually have WH from both Holderreads and Metzers. They are all beautiful. However, if you ever wanted to get in to showing your birds then you might run into a problem with Metzers. I only have one duck with correct confirmation that could be shown from that flock. Our drake from Metzer...

    Quote: Now I can't wait. I have 4 WH and 6 Saxony ducklings coming from Holderreads in a couple of weeks. I hope I don't get all drakes though.

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: Azhenhouse those look like really nice Welsh Harlequin teenagers! Can you see the colors on the wingbars yet? Blue wingbars are silver and bronze are gold. Yours seem to be towards the end of that long phase where their feathering is changing so much its often hard to tell the...

    My four are from Metzer Farms. I have four more coming from a Holderreads order. It will be interesting to see the difference in the hatcheries.

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: It's funny because Peanut and Ritz have the same coloring, and look a lot alike. Then, Cookie and Skittles look alike. The two pairs were hatched a week apart from each other. Make since? Peanut and Cookie were hatched a week before Skittles and Ritz. I too easily amused.

    Welsh Harlequin

    My babies are six and five weeks old now. Here are some updated pictures of them. Peanut (6wks) is my son's first choice for a showmanship duck. She hates to be caught, but once you have her she is very calm. He has been practicing poses with her, and she is very cooperative. Cookie (6wks)...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: I am also getting a order from Holderreads next month for four Welsh Harlequins and six Saxony ducklings. I was originally going to get four Cayugas but changed them to the Harlequins. I decided to just have two breeds of ducks rather than three. I can't wait!

    Welsh Harlequin

    Peanut, Cookie, Skittles, and Ritz are getting bigger. Skittles and Ritz keep wanting to lay in the food bowl. I finally took the food out and put it in a smaller dish, and then put some pine shavings in the old food dish. Guess where their favorite place to lay is? Oh, as you can see, I was...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: As my boys would say, "MY BAD". I didn't mean to get you "lost" At first glance, for this untrained eye, I thought possible Harlequin. However, I quickly realized my mistake. Your ducky has a little yellow line by its eye, and its bill is different. That is why I now think it is a...

    Quote: No, I thought you were saying Harlequin. I think it's a Blue Swedish. Sorry I was so confusing

    Here are the pictures I said I would download. Peanut and Cookie are just over two weeks old. My Avatar is them at three days old. Peanut is the leader, always has been. She is also the one who is more aggressive towards Skittles and Ritz. This is Skittles (the darker one) and Ritz (the...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: I butchered my first 2 Welsh Harlequins last week. Extra drakes. There isn't a ton of meat on them since they are on the smaller size, but the meat was delicious. My "home for excess drakes" is now my stomach Then is my plan, as we have decided to raise ducks, and I don't want to...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Quote: I actually have four from Metzer Farm. I had originally ordered three (two hens & one drake) but the first three that I ordered died. They shipped them out Presidents day, and there was delay in shipping. The ducklings couldn't handle the delay . I will never order over a holiday...
