    Oregon

    Oregon is rich in the beautiful scenery department. If I had my way I do a kind of meandering road trip: Starting out in Hood River area do some hiking, windsurfing, and much eating of fruit. Also, I'd rent a convertible and cruise around the Columbia River Highway, making sure I've got money...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    I have just had a bundle of Pekin Cayuga babies, and they are CUTE. They dad is the pekin, mom Cayuga. Some have great markings, I think it is only the males, like they are wearing a tuxedo and tails. I don't know much about pattern genetics, does any one here know more about that sort of thing?

    cayuga duck thread

    My Caygua had a hard time of it the first time round. She didn't really know what to do, only 2 of the little ones survived and only because I scooped them up after they hatched. She would attack the hatching ducklings and fling them out (like "what the heck is up with my eggs, they used to be...

    Help gathering eggs without stressing the flock

    My ducks and my drake are all super protective of the nest. If I gather the eggs they become very stressed, even if I wait until they are out roaming around. One duck actually seems to get despondent about it, walking around and quacking. I don't know what to do! I've got 3 ducklings as a...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    My Pekin drake, who's full name is "Po! Get up you'll be late for work!", has turned into a super protective poppa. He protects the nests, nuzzles the eggs with his beak, and fluffs up the nesting material. It is pretty cute!

    cayuga duck thread

    I have two Cayuga ducks, the are bossy ladies! I love them. I've read that they are a threatened livestock breed, which is a shame since they are so beautiful. My ladies are pretty good layers too, more than my household can put to use anyway. I am really interested in learning about and...

    Oregon

    We've got mud like crazy too! I'm new to this but I've been using blue grass all year with great success. My ducks make great neat little nests out of it, and any mess falls below away from thier ducky butts and the eggs look nice and are clean. I use an old grid wall and weave the grass tightly...

    Hello from Salem, OR

    Hi there, I'm Carrie and I am an unashamed quack addict. I am brand new to the backyard duck scene but I know that it is where I belong. I started out with two pekin ducks, Quackers and Cheese, but tragically Cheese died yesterday. Quackers is lonely and I am a poor substitute for another duck...
