Welsh Harlequin

[chickkrzi]

Went out last night to put them up, and they where already inside the coop. Not sure if the rain had anything to do with it or not. We have the same problem with owls and racco ons. So I would sleep better if they where lock up at night. My coop door is equipped with a automatic door open / close.

Jasper did great at the PNPA show this weekend! My training really came in handy, because she was not at all stressed AND was very photogenic.

She took Best of Breed in both Open shows, and Reserve Champion Light Duck in one of them! I was volunteering as a judge clerk as well and learned a LOT. It was an awesome experience.

Yay!

Jasper is one gorgeous hen!! Congratulations!!

it seems that my 1 1/2 yrs old WH have finally settled in after three week in there new home. Got one egg yesterday and 2 more today. but I was wondering the eggs seems to be so slimy looking. I have to really scrub them really hard to get them white again. is that normal for duck eggs?

Jasper is so very pretty!
We would like to get two or three Welsh Harlequin ducklings this spring. Can someone tell me of a local breeder? Our local supplier of chicks and ducklings doesn't offer them.

I had posted this in a thread by itself, but maybe y'all could let me know what you think?

I just bought a female Welsh Harlequin today. I don't know much about ducks, but the seller said they are worth $150. But when I did some research when I got home, I'm finding out they aren't all that expensive. I only paid $15 for my female, but I'm curious if anyone else has heard of this price?

Here are two ads to show why I'm confused

Depends on the quality. Top show winning birds can be worth a lot, but beyond that they aren't all that expensive
