Show off your Indian Runners!


This guy was at the Pa Farm Show... What I would do to have a runner this color!!!!!
Where can I get one!
Do you have a photo of the front of him? Or maybe of a female "trout"? I think that he may be a gray (mallard color) because I don't think that trout is a recognized color yet. I have both grays and trouts........ In the males they are almost the same color, but the belly on the trouts is lighter colored: gray on the grays, and lighter (almost white) on the trouts.

Yeah its a gray.... I went to the farm show to buy him and his mate at any cost! Waited 4 1/2 hours of just standing waiting for the guy to show... and to find out they where sold to someone in Mass...!!!!!!!! So after 80 miles (one way) 4 1/2 hours of waiting to be turned down.. Can you say upset??? But I did come home and my eggs hatched!!!!!!! I have a thread on the Ducks section of the ducklings :)

Just took these this morning. My 5 blue runners, 1 muscovy, 1 white runner and a trio of hookbills.

Kept back all the best ones out of the batch and I love them!

 
Went out to Vaseline chicken combs tonight and guess who must have jumped into the hen house?! Ivy...

My duckies have a perfectly nice straw-bedded, insulated dog house, but about 3 weeks ago, they decided to try sleeping in the hen house. They found out how to use the ramp door. SO, I started shutting the ramp door and leaving the side door open. Chickens can jump in, ducks can't right? Well, apparently Ivy is out to prove me wrong....GOOF.

There are quite a few people that still sell the Gray runner ducklings (Holderread's used to, but it's one of the colors they discontinued). Sandhill is one, and Johnson's Waterfowl is another,
