    I have two Females Cayuga ducks, about 17 weeks old, and they were introduced to our flock of ducks at about 8-9 weeks old. Our flock consists of 1 male jumbo pekin, 1 female pekin, 1 male Swedish/runner, and 1 female Swedish runner. At first, the adult ducks were just scared of the ducklings...

    8 months? They are probably 4-5 pounds already. (Females). But we have them in a cage at night with pellet food. But we have 10 acres for them to forage as well as a 1 acre pond.

    @Darnbunnies you may be right with your response, but is it really fair to be so harsh and condescending to them? They didn't know, therefore they couldn't have known to do anything. Nature can be cruel, and so can be like you. (Darnbunnies)

    Nothing's wrong. But I just wanted to see if there was an explanation for this. And the dad is purely Pekin and I was told the mom was Swedish/Runner, so idk.

    Hi, this is supposed to be a Swedish/Runner/Pekin (my duck went broody) and the duckling looks like a female Rouen duck instead. Also, instead of that blue feather it has a black one. Can someone help me?!

    So these are the surviving three ducklings (Swedish/Runner/Pekins). The two look as we had envisioned. The light brown one, however, looks more like a female Rouen/Mallard. It is really weird because we don't have those breeds. Does anyone have an explanation?

    Sadly, the happy duck from the pictures above has been put to sleep. A couple days ago, we noticed a couple flies bothering Daphne. We didn't think much of it, we thought maybe they just bothered her. This morning we looked at her, and saw that her whole back half of her body was featherless and...

    Well currently we have 4 ducks living in 1 60 sq ft cage (1 male, 3 females) and then the mom and her ducklings in a separate cage about half the size. But they have around 8 acres to roam around.

    Thanks! She would definetely let me hand feed her, but I don't. She can't follow me around because of her limp. I have 4 other adults ducks and 3 ducklings.

    I love my duck Daphne. We got adopted her from a sanctuary that saves animals or provides an alternative home for them. She is a Pekin duck (maybe Jumbo?) and she has a limp. It's probably due to the overage of males at the sanctuary. But she is the sweetest thing.

    Ok, so below is a picture of my Swedish/Runner duck. It is smaller than my other females. It doesn't have a curled tail and has not jumped on our hens. It hasn't laid an egg (however, we got it from a place with many ducks so it might not been healthy enough yet). But it has an unusual sound. It...
