    Try separating her and see how she does that way. It sounds like she can't compete with the others yet. Walt

    *~*Runner Duck Club*~*

    They are wonderful people at Metzer but they don't have Runners that meet the Standard for pure bred Runners. There is a very specific description for Runner ducks.

    It's not the feed, it is how they are bred. To stand that upright they have to have their legs much further back than most I have seen posted here. They are called Runners for a reason and that is how they are judged at a show. they are judged on how they look as they move around a ring...

    I don't think they can eat a rat unless it was a day old and while they can eat a mouse they have a bill that is not efficient in dealing with rodents. Walt

    Several of these "hatcheries" don't have any birds on the premises, they are shipped from breeders elsewhere. I used to ship birds to people who ordered them from Strombergs. I just put the Stromberg label on them. Walt
