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.

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.

Yesterday i bought a Feather-footed Wheaten French Maran Chick from Giddy-Up on Poultry Swap Ontario. She was kind enough to give me an extra chick (both hens) for free! They were very good travelers on the 2 hour car drive home and dived into the food once they were put on the brooder. They are the sweetest and most friendly chicks i have ever seen :D
