    Duck colour help please

    I know the drill for breeding them lol. This Spring Backyard Poultry Magazine is putting a story about Aztecs in their rare breeds issue that I wrote. I'll check out your thread- it's hard to find other breeders. I had to hit the books about the porcelain/pastel difference. Porcelain is a Dusky...

    Duck colour help please

    I hadn't realized Blue Fawn was where that started, I thought it was Pastel-Porcelain and Blue Fawn-Silver. And that's awesome, I've been working on them as well. I love those little monsters. Have you dialed in the Blue Fawn yet? I chatted with Chris at Duck Creek a little about them. He told...

    Duck colour help please

    Porcelain has one more blue dilution than Pastel, but being so similar ducks normally get labelled as the latter. There's a bit less of the tan color on the girls and drakes tend not to have as large of a bib. To me, the head and body are a bit long looking for Calls. But it's definitely more...

    Colored Cayuga pics

    Here's a few pictures of my black, blue, silver and chocolate Cayugas. I thought I'd share to show how they look given it seems not many people know about the other colors

    They do look like Aztecs, which are porcelain. Did the parents have the same bills and body shape?

    Shetland geese

    I'm getting Cotton Patch eggs now and starting to incubate. I plan to have some available within a month and half. They are the sweetest Geese in the world, in my experience. I'd love to get some Shetlands myself. Willowbrook is the Canadian breeder that got the bulk of Holderread's flock. I...

    Cotton Patch Geese Hatching Eggs

    I don't know if I did it right, but there should be a video of my original 3 boys https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ntBELzqlDvCi1xgCAv42oq6dxZqCPZzt/view?usp=drivesdk

    Cotton Patch Geese Hatching Eggs

    Thanks DiYMama540. I don't have any more space on my CPG egg list for this season, but goslings are still available for order. Next year I'll have more than this one. I have more birds coming later on from different places to expand my flock while keeping as much genetic diversity as possible. I...

    Those are bantam Aztec Duck drakes, they're very friendly too. But I do sell eggs, hatchlings and adults

    Thinking about getting some geese... advice?

    Cotton Patch Geese are the sweetest geese I've ever experienced. They're a little bigger than Pekin Ducks, can fly(not very far though), not as vocal as most other breeds and are critically endangered. Mine do well with flock protection; but I know others who have them and it seems to depend on...

    International Breed Exchange

    I'm looking for a Waterfowl breeder in Europe that would be interested in doing an international exchange of breeds. I'm located in the Northeastern US and would like to find a partner across the pond to ship eggs of breeds not currently in the country. There's a good amount that aren't...
