    Cayuga X Khaki Campbell babies?

    I know this is a very old thread lol, but I have a mix between a Cayuga drake and khaki campbell hen. I expected it to be all black, but surprisingly it has a mix. The feathers are each black with a light brown outline. They're basically like khaki campbell feathers except the dark brown part is...

    what kind of pics do i need to post to get help with gender

    At a certain age, the males will have a couple feathers curl on the top of their tails. Also, males will have more of a quack sound, whereas females will honk. The best way to tell though is if the feathers curl

    My blind (or partially blind) duckling

    I got a free check up for my ducks, but for eye problems im not certain. It largely depends on your area.

    Aggressive Drake

    Covering their head or bill will calm them down, and they will feel as though you have more authority than them. Ducks are quick learners, and you could even pull him away each time he attempts hurting the hens. Although thus would take a lot of time and effort.

    Aggressive Drake

    I would say separate him. The best thing to do would be to isolate him until he calms down.

    Muscovy duckling deformed feet

    I've never had this problem before. That poor guy :(. Is he walking okay? Ive had a pigeon toed duckling, and he figured out how to walk without tripping eventually. But is this something new or was he born with it?

    Couldn't resist!

    All I can say for them at this age is that theyll probably go through water a lot faster than chickens, and will make quite a mess lol. I absolutely love ducks x). Have fun!!!

    Avian cholera has also been spreading in the northwest. I lost a duckling to that just a couple weeks ago :(

    Bullying Ducks

    The best way to tell is if the tail curls. Also the males will be larger than the females. Males have more of a quack sound, and females will usually honk. I hope this helps!

    Need help with identification ducklings

    I have a blue swedish duckling, and the only difference it has between these is the black compared to gray. I would assume theyre black swedish.
