    What are good duck treats

    Don't forget watermelon!!! My teenage ducks fall all over each other to get to me when I have hunks of watermelon for them. They gobble it up, throwing it in the air and they eat it down to the rind! It is HILARIOUS, too. Also, any kind of lettuces or beet greens chopped fine are big hits...

    Would half Runner /half Cayuga ducklings be "mules?"

    Tia-I'll try to figure out how to post photos here. Don't you LOVE your Runners? at first I thought they'd look funny, but I LOVE how my Blue Runner drake zooms across the yard to me. He even "kisses" me and nuzzles my hair. He's the BEST duck and I am glad to have his kids. In ducky love...

    Would half Runner /half Cayuga ducklings be "mules?"

    Thanks friends for the answers. They are the *cutest*, the half-runner/half cayugas. I love that I have Mutt ducks.

    Would half Runner /half Cayuga ducklings be "mules?"

    Does anyone know if a cross between a Blue Runner and a Cayuga would also be 'mules?' I have some ducklings like this. Also, I have some ducklings that are half mallard half Blue Runner. Will they also be Mules?

    Drakes free to a good home in New England

    Anyone within driving distance of SW Vermont (on the NY, Mass border) interested in a few very sweet 3-month old half Blue Runner, half Cayuga drakes? Out of six that hatched, five were drakes! So, too many drakes. They are beautiful--taller and thinner than a Cayuga but not quite as thin as...

    How many drakes is too many?

    Too bad you're in Australia--or you could take a few of my very sweet drakes! Thanks for the advice. I don't know what I'll do yet. I figure I have another month before the hormones kick in to figure it out.

    How many drakes is too many?

    thanks Wifezilla...as I suspected. Maybe I can trade a few for females, but most people don't want more males, right? THey might EAT them!!! To me they are all pets. So, possibly a bachelor pen....my ducks are free range, so I might not want to do that either. Or I guess finding good homes...

    How many drakes is too many?

    Hi! I have six 'teenage' ducks that were hatched out here naturally by a mom duck. Their parents are a Blue Runner and a Cayuga. They are beautiful: four silver ones (one has a green wing!) and four green/black ones. They are three months old. I am listening to them quack, and it seems I...

    Blue Runner Duck Drake attacking babies

    Hi RenHen-- thank you for your reply. How LONG did it take for your drake to mellow out? What breed is he and are the ducklings his babies?

    Blue Runner Duck Drake attacking babies

    I have a Blue Runner drake whom I adore. He is so friendly to me and comes right up and nuzzles me. We have been bonded since he came to me at 4months old last fall (I didn't raise him from a baby, which is why I was surprised he took to me so easily). He has two girl Cayuga ducks and a...
