    Duckmom aka new chick mom! Any idea on type of breed?

    UPDATED PICTURES: My TSC bantams are now three weeks old. I'm still a little confused on colors of silkies and breed on 3 of them. #1 Silkie- Possibly blue being it's not black like my previous black silkies. #2 Silkie- Splash or lavender? It's definitely not white like the other one or...

    Duckmom aka new chick mom! Any idea on type of breed?

    I have ordered from hatcheries for ducks a total of 4 times. The first time everyone arrived safe and healthy but the next 3 times all arrived weak and died within 24 hours. I stopped ordering because I feel as if shipping day old poultry is hard on them. So, I decided to get some from TSC even...

    Cayuga cross with Drake that looks like either an orpington/golden cascade

    Thank you, the pictures aren't is vibrant as they are but they are gorgeous. Unfortunately, I have too many drakes now so will be downsizing but plan on keeping 2 plus the chocolate female.

I love researching to see what they are but I can't hold in the...

    Cayuga cross with Drake that looks like either an orpington/golden cascade

    I've done alot of research and apparently you can sex link ducks with certain colors/breeds. That's what I did with our buff drake and cayuga hen. All of the blue, grey, and silver looking ones were male and the chocolate one was female. The pictures don't do justice with the coloring on either...

    Hello! Newbie duck mimi here

    Hello everyone! I'm so glad I found this page on Google and it has come in handy since my daughter got ducks 6 months ago. Of course, she didn't get regular ducks but instead got some boujie ones 🤣. She started this journey because she has always wanted a bird but also to give her an outlet...
