I have a Khaki/Pekin/Mallard female. She looked very similar to Snowflake as a baby. I thought she was just Pekin/Mallard until her feathers grew out. (Pekin/Mallard father and Khaki mother) I do think Snowflake is a cross; if you hatch some of her babies, you will get some beauties!!
2 females and 2 males swmiming in the pond. They've been together since September, but they've started biting one female. They don't let her swim with them, and she spends a lot of time alone. What is the problem??
This duck has had quiet a bit of fun...

Yes, the Pekin is the only one I didn't hatch. I managed to hatch 7 out of 8 eggs this year, but 2 of them didn't make it past 24 hours. The 8th never pipped, but it was a beautiful solid yellow baby!

The Pekin in the picture is a rescue. Someone threw her out along with 2 others; sadly, the other two were hit by cars
In this group, 5 have been named: Peanut, Peeps, Sunny, Boss, and QuackerJack
I have 8 eggs in the incubator. (Pekin and Khaki eggs) 6 were set on February 8th and 2 were set on the 10th.
It's day 22 for the 6 eggs and one has ALREADY internally pipped, on day 21!
I candled yesterday, and the duckling is tapping the egg, and I can hear it peeping. The temp is...
I had Jase, Phil, and Si (Yes like the people from Duck Dynasty) in my first batch.
I currently have a female Pekin (Bubbles), 2 male Khaki Campbells (Hershey & Jelly Bean), 2 female Khakis (Snuggles & Whopper, like the candy), and a Pekin/Mallard cross named Popcorn.
I have a batch hatching...
This is Popcorn, he is a Pekin/Mallard cross. You can't tell that he has Pekin in him except for the white tips on his wings and his size.
He really is the most beautiful Drake I have. I got lucky when I was hatching him, because he had SO MANY complications. He has dressed up for several...
My baby Popcorn will be 8 weeks on November 10th. I moved him into the pen with my other ducks at 5 weeks old. My 4 other ducks still haven't really accepted him, and he only comes out of his house each day when I feed and change water. What can I do to make him feel better? I have been "Mommy"...
