I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock.

First, watching a runner duck run is awesome. They can find their own food. They aren't like pekins in water. Mine haven't started laying but I heard their decent.

Its not as fat and slow as a pekin, but its not frail either. I want a mallard but I don't want a flying bird. The rouen is great for that.

They are my calmest birds and are easiest to catch. They eat less than Pekins. I heard they also lay well, but mine are younger.

Here is the Daddy Roo of all them...

Here is a roo of his....

And here is another of his roos, that does not look like any of the others....

The mom (hard to see) is the red hen in this pic, the white roo someone gave me, and I have no clue what he is.

The ones I am most curious about is the tiny colorful roo, and the white one. I believe the rest are Old English Games. Everyone (hens, of course) lay white eggs, not brown.

I try to raise food, but sometimes end up with pets.

His dad is small, but not banty small, and his brother is a giant.
He's a hateful little creature. I have to keep him apart from every one because he's a bully...he even terrorizes hens 10 times his size.

I'll have to look up campine...not familiar with it.
