    One of my Ancona girls has begun to lay!! While I have observed some mating (or attempts) going on, I’m not 100% my drake is successful yet. He is still young.

    Show me your cats!

    Potiphar is a kitten my niece and I rescued a few weeks ago. He is now fixed and allowed to roam the farm. He seems interested in the ducks, but hasn’t attempted to attack, not even the week old duckling that’s managed to escape his enclosure THREE times this week.

    Show me your cats!

    I have ducks, but Tonks lived in a barn next to chickens before I got her. Sometimes she likes to help me put the ducks up at night. Sometimes she is a hindrance!

    Swedish Blacks or Overmarked Ancona

    OMG!! I just thought it was an oddly marked Ancona. I looked up what an Appleyard duckling looks like. Now I have ANOTHER duck breed...

    Swedish Blacks or Overmarked Ancona

    They had Ancona ducklings mixed with Swedish Blacks, so I think I just got a mix. However, since doing some research, I've found that when Anconas become endangered, they buffed up the breed with some Swedish Blacks. And despite the markings, both breeds are very similar in all other ways. I...

    Swedish Blacks or Overmarked Ancona

    These are the first day-olds I have had, so I imagine they will be more socialized than my two (almost grown) girls. The runt especially has my heart and we have spent some quality time together.

    calling any one from missouri

    My two girls are Anconas. I recently picked up seven babies that were supposed to be Anconas as well, but I'm pretty sure five of them are Swedish Blacks...so not sure what my plans are since that will cause issues with cross-breeding. I also have a few Ancona eggs in the incubator 🤞

    calling any one from missouri

    South-Central Missouri I recently inherited a house with a large outbuilding and lean-tos attached. I decided to start my hobby farm with some ducks! I’m hoping to add a few bunnies, and maybe some guineas or geese.

    Swedish Blacks or Overmarked Ancona

    After driving over 2 hours to pick up Ancona ducklings, I was surprised at how overmarked they were, but they still had black and yellow on their feet and beaks, so I went ahead and took some home (I did drive a long way!). I also found out after the drive, that I was not purchasing from a...

    Neighbours left a thinly veiled threat to our chickens

    Yet one more reason that my nearest neighbor is half a mile away from me (0.8 km)! And most of my neighbors are actually related to me!
