Silver Appleyard Duckling with Dark Bill
My Appleyards I think never imprinted on me and did on each other. They do as they please and come home as they please. I love watching them interact but only one will let me hold him. My two cayugas I got at the farm supply follow me everywhere, sit by my feet, and are quiet and content when I... -

Silver Appleyard Duckling with Dark Bill
I love the names! Our drakes are Clyde and Gus. Our girls are Fern (the dark headed one), Charlotte (the loud one), Little Lydia, and Large Marge. Haha -

Silver Appleyard Duckling with Dark Bill
The two back ones are my drakes I think. The 1 closest to me is the young one with the dark head and Bill. The one at the very front is a female with a dark Bill, dark head and leads everyone. Also the loudest too! -
Silver Appleyard Duckling with Dark Bill
I got sexed Appleyards from a breeder online and wanted 1 drake and 4 girls. When they arrived, i had two drakes and three females. They sent 2 "replacements" for the 1 that was mis-sexed, and of course 1 of them died upon opening the box. i am guessing they meant to send only one healthy one...
