    Welsh Harlequin

    Here she is two days ago.. And I took these this morning. You can see where new cleaner feathers are exposed where they used to be covered. Is this normal?

    Welsh Harlequin

    My silver WH lost ALL of her flight feathers yesterday! Not that she was planning to fly anywhere ;) A few minutes with Google tells me it's normal to molt this time of year, but jeez this seems like a lot. And it's just Wiggletail, although she's 2 but my other three ducks just hatched this...

    Welsh Harlequin

    I was just looking around for homemade duck food ideas, and came across a blog (http://www.beksbackyard.com) with a photo of a female WH that looks almost exactly like yours with the dark head, arnaudgf - She says she has two ducks and a drake, so it must be a girl :) I also read...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Thank you! That's all I needed to know. I'll never show them - I just got them for eggs and slug control and to enjoy their company :) It sounds like everything the seller told me in person was correct, and she just got the hatch date wrong. My 5 year old is at her dad's house today, and I...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Thanks you guys! The one in front was advertised as a Rouen, and from Irisdescent's link (THANK YOU - that was really helpful!) it definitely looks like a female. AND I just read on another thread that the gold WH's don't have sex-linked bill color - is that true? That would explain it! So...

    Welsh Harlequin

    Hi! I've been going through this thread looking at photos to compare to the ducks I just brought home, and I've learned a lot about keeping ducks, but I'm still not sure what I have! Their previous owner said they were 5 month old females, one Welsh Harlequin and one Rouen. I texted her...
