    I need a genticist! lol

    I've got eggs in the incubator that are Welsh Harlequin (duck) X Blue Swedish (drake). Just want a general idea of what they might look like. I looked up the info in Holderread's Raising Ducks book but, in all honesty, it gave me a headache. Would they be a mix of the parents? Would some look WH...

Is that normal for females or should I be concerned that I accidentally got drakes? I've been listening to their voices but I just can't tell well enough yet. They're only 3 weeks...

    Rehoming drakes

    So I have 3 drakes and want to get more ducks. I'm well aware of the male:female ratio. I'm super attached to one of the drakes, so my only option is to rehome the other 2 drakes since I don't have the room for 9 females to join the flock. I have a duck house that's 16 sq feet, a covered...

    Hello from TN!

    Hi all! I kept seeing this forum popping up in my research on duck keeping. I've got 3 drakes right now. Looking to get more babies in the future and I'm trying to build up my confidence to get straight run ducklings. I'm nervous about dealing with the aspects of eggs and mating but one day I'm...
