Hi everyone,
We hatched our first egg on April 20th. Nibbles made his grand entrance about 5:30 or so. We know the father is a Rouen, because we only have 1 male duck. As far as the mother goes, it could be Rouen, Pekin or Harlequin. I don't think it is the Rouen because Nibbles has much more yellow on him then the baby rouens did last year when we bought them at Tractor Supply. So I am leaning towards the Pekin or possibly the Harlequins.
Does anybody recognize this color combo? Especially the orange bill with a black stripe. The feet are also orange with black stripes. He loves it when I pat him and rub his belly. My ducklings last year hated it when we touched them.
