I am thinking of showing my ixworth and was wondering what category it would be in?
Is it a hard feather heavy bird?
Large Hard Feather
11 Oxford Duckwing Lt red pyle cock
12 Oxford Duckwing Lt red pyle stag
13 Grey cock
14 Grey stag
15 A.O.C Cock
16 A.O.C stag
17 Duckwing...
I have some pekins / cochin bantams and would rather like to get some geese eggs to hatch would the size make this a problem? Does anyone have any experience of this?
I had considered buffs, but though that welsh harlequins would be better mothers, i would also be interested to know about the possibility of getting mallards, but not just from the local park.
Just some general pros and cons of the breed, its a toss up between them and buff ducks.
Does anyone know where you can get either of these breeds from in Yorkshire or Derbyshire in the UK. I'd be especially interested if someone had used the company before.
