i would definatly be interested as well. But i would prob have to get eggs unless you feel comfy shipping day old ducklings. I'm in upstate ny.

Awesome. I will have to find the breed standard and see if i can compare. I want a project breed. Still looking for the right one. I can look for good Ancona's if mine don't match up.

Those pics helped immensely thank you.

All four are in this pic...3 in the middle last one on far right

I saw on a the poultry conservation site that Ancona ducks were on the endangered list. And I never really see them for sale anywhere. I have 2 hens and 2 drakes that I was told were Ancona. Should I keep them separate from the rest of my flock to keep them pure or are they not endangered anymore?

Ooops...i did say that backwards didn't i. Lmao...yes this is the gander...goose is on eggs right now. Lol. Do u think African or chinese?

I got better pics of my male yesterday. Is it any easier to see if he is African (Only 9-10 months old) or is he chinese. The gander is on eggs so I don't want to bother her.

Thank u so much. That is great to know. Right now she is only on duck eggs. Although it went from 4 eggs to 9 in the last couple weeks. Either she collects the duck eggs or more ducks are adding eggs ads she goes to eat or drink. I have to go through and take out the infertal one a tonight. Lol...

You have all helped imensly. Thank u so much.

We live in the woods so I am nervous about getting white chickens to raise for meat. They will be in a fenced in area surrounded by electric fence bot no over head netting so I'm looking for good meat birds with good camo...our locate tractor supply has barred rock. I have a couple as lay hens...

Thank u. Will do. Glad to hear there's a chance.

Ya I would love it if she incubated the duck eggs. We were planning on incubating them.

My female goose laid about 4-5 eggs last week. We collected them but this poor girl has gone broody anyway...we have tried every day for the last week to keep her out of the nest to no avail. So today I took 4 duck (freshly laid)eggs and put them under her in hopes maybe she will hatch them. I...

Awesome news that you are keeping them. But if you do change your mind 5 hr drive is no prob for me. I like road trips. Good luck with your babys.

I live in Syracuse new York. I might be able to help with the homing thing. I can give them a good home. I have a pretty big pond already in the works for spring.

I guess I will just have to wait and see if they grow big and dewlapped.

I feel so blind.....I still can't see a difference. You are awesome for all the pics though. Thank you so much for trying...lol. I must be so blind...

I can try. But being only 8 months its hard to tell the dewlap because not grown yet. I will try to weigh them tomorrow

Is the Chinese tail feathers shorter then the African?

it does help but I still cant tell them apart...lmao....Is there something I can look at specifically that will show me?
