cayuga duck

I have a Cayuga duck female that has went missing today. This is not the norm for her, so I am a bit worried. I am wondering where do they like to make their nest? Near the pond away from pond, in the tree line, on hills, under trees, away from everyone? I'm just hoping she's sitting on a nest...

Hi all, hopefully someone sees this! My Cayuga boy was attacked last night. Luckily their pen is out front and I was able to get to him pretty quickly but he had quite a bad wound under his wing, I’m extremely green to birds surviving what I can only guess was a fox attack. We brought him and...

Totoro: is a Cayuga duck and is about 6 or 7 years old she's had four ducklings she recently just hatched two of them so was recently broody about 3 ish weeks ago. Weight: about 6 lbs (whatever is normal for her breed) Feed: All flock, and layer feed I don't give any supplements but hope to...

So I have mentioned this Cayuga before, but she is currently 9 years old and suffers from arthritis. Recently, she broke her leg around the femur area, and there is very little hope she’ll be able to walk ever again. We’re not sure what exactly caused this. I don’t want to put her down. She...

My Cayuga duckling has both of their flight wings hanging down. I got her and a Rouen May 14th from Rural king. The Rouen was a little bigger, still is and quacking already. While my Cayuga isn’t quacking yet. I figured it was the breed or maybe they’re a week or so apart in age. Then the last...

I have four, 9 week old Cayugas and six, 6 week old Welsh Harlequins. 2 Cayugas are drakes. The remaining 8 ducks are girls. The Cayugas have been outside for 2-3 weeks in their coop and run. We have a larger fenced off area within the greater back yard where they forage and we also have been...

Hey all, As someone new to Cayuga owning, can they come in any color other than black? Or if the ducklings are not black does that mean they’re not pure Cayuga??

I have 4 cayuga Drakes in need of a new home/s, ideally looking for someone who would breed them. They are all about 4 months old. Can send/post photos upon request.

I've said this so many times, but, I'm picking up my Cayuga ducks tomorrow! I have an extra coop where they can be but it's occupied by my new muscovies (2 months old). The Cayuga ducks are fully mature, but obviously, the Muscovies aren't. I'm worried that the drake might try to mate with the...

Hey y’all! I just recently purchased my first Cayuga ducks from someone who is downsizing their flock for winter, I bought 2 hens and a drake they are about 2 years old. When I purchased them, the person said that one of the hens had a bit of a limp, and she still has the limp right now, I went...

So we have a small flock of Cayugas, they are our breeder birds and I have been feeding Kalmbachs Duck & Goose. They seemed to do well on it till I switch over to the 20% Full Plume (for chickens in molt) and they have thrived on it. However I do wonder if I should change it back to a more...

Hi everyone I moved earlier this year from NYC to Pennsylvania and decided to take advantage of our much larger backyard and start raising chickens and ducks. I have 4 Rhode Island Red Chickens that are about 3 months old. And 2 Cayuga Ducks that about 2 and a half months old. I had 3 ducks...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the site. I live on a lagoon and I feed the ducks that come to my backyard. We're used to seeing a lot of mallards and duclairs, but recently a female cayuga and a female aylesbury duck showed up and have been eating and hanging out in our yard every day. We love them...

My 1.5 year old Cayuga duck needs a new home. We lost her mate to a predator a month ago. Looking for a flock for her to join, where I know she’ll be happier. Located in Charleston WV

Hi there! Thank the Lord, I’m not having a problem with my duckies, I was just curious if anybody else had noticed this!!! So, we have had a Khaki Campbell and a Cayuga before. Neither one really cared for food!! If we wanted to watch them eat, we had to be sneaky!! Don’t get me wrong, they...

Hello all, I’m Andy and a complete newbe to forums and also egg hatching. I live in sunny uk, north west 🙌. We had 2 Aylesbury ducks from chicks about 2 weeks old. Picked a random 2 from 20+ chicks and they turned out to be male and female. Perfect luck. They where skittish at the start but soon...

Hey y’all! My Cayuga’s first clutch is now up to 16 eggs!! Every time I think she’s going to start the incubation period she eventually gets up and leaves for hours lol I’m letting nature handle this situation and hopeful that my girls motherly instincts kick in. I finally caught her laying an...

Hello y’all 😌 Excited to join the community & hopefully get a better understanding on my family’s Cayuga ducks. Mainly for information and advice regarding one of our ducks who just today laid her first egg(s). We found one in her house and another near the pool, but unfortunately it was broken...
