    Three Ducks

    I have three ducks that I have really enjoyed and don't particularly want to part with them. One Cayuga and two Black Indian Runners - all drakes. They are around a year old. I am in Burlington, NJ. Email me if you are interested. wtworrell @ gmail . com

    Ducks making strang noise

    I have three drakes and no hens. I don't ever see them do the up and down head bob. I only saw that when I had hens.

    Ducks making strang noise

    Recently, when I go down to the stream to visit my ducks, they make a strange call. They will rear up on their tail end, so they are straight up, at the same time they will make a sharp chirp/quack while arching their neck and head down until their bill touches the water, at which time they make...

    Quote: Yeah, it is unfortunate. They weren't going near the road, but for some reason, when they harvested the field across the street the ducks were interested and went over there. Your drake is alive. I thought about not getting any more ducks and sticking with the chickens. However, he...

    Anyone have a duck or two they are looking to get rid of/sell? I am in Burlington. I have one lonely Cayuga drake. His mate was hit by a car a few weeks ago. Thanks.

    Nest Underwater

    So, last week, when the hurricane came through, my mallards nest was underwater for about three hours. She stood over it the whole time, as the water was just enough to cover the eggs. She had been setting for about two weeks at this point. She is still setting now. My question is: did the eggs...

    My Skitish Leghorns

    My Skitish Leghorns

    So, I had gotten five brown leghorn hens back in March. Today, while they are fine looking, healthy girls, they run from me once I get within 10' of them. At this point they are completely free range. I open the coop in the morning and they are out in the woods and down by the stream until an...

    What does this mean

    Since my drake got killed last week, the two girls have been acting quite a bit different. The Cayuga is now incredibly vocal. If she catches a glimpse of me in the window she quacks several times real loud; she also does this every time I come outside, if anyone else goes out, if someone pulls...

    Flappers got hit by a car

    So, I think I am going to order a pair of Rouens. Do you think that I will have a problem introducing them into the flock once they are old enough?
