My only call baby this year, the other didn't make it during hatch and the rest of the eggs needed more time than the mama would give.

those look wondeful LC! i'd love some color like that, slip some in the post okay? warmer now in Can

good grief .. they are super cute!

In my experience no. The bottom line however is there is show quality and breeding quality they are not the same.

hee hee.. i have forgotten how sweet and little they are!

aw, they are so darn cute! i am expecting half a dozen myself. Somehow the mama sneaked that nest in!

aw, so sweet! i miss call babies. None this year.

Looks chocolate like, at least comparing my Muscovy babies who were/are... never seen a call in chocolate before...

I understand, i think the fact calls laying season is so short is not helping you at all. You need a young bird, clearly as well. Have you consider another bantam breed?

I'm sorry your having such a time, unfortunately, i am not even in the US... maybe in the spring you will have more luck, any rescues around you? it's hard i know personally my calls stopped laying ages ago, as a matter of fact none returned to laying after all the babies hatched.

I have shown him before but i have just dubbed him 'blue' for now lol

I just meant i was hoping to gain a blue fawn drake but this isn't a drive thru you get what you get, so was happy to gain what i wanted, that doesn't happen all the time when your hatching your own, buying it is more controllable especially if you purchase birds old enough to know their sexes.

Blue fawn are nice, i was surprised i got a drake.. he has such a pretty head and a nice contrast to all my greys.

yes, chubby cheeks are part of it, calls are basically live rubber duckies... as per most birds, quality varies even amongst parents of good quality, i know within my own flock i have differences and none of the birds are poor quality, just varying in size and bill length.

LOL thanks guys. She never produced any young like her of coarse i don't have the right drake either i only have a grey, well okay now i have blue fawn one too but besides the point i am not even sure if the kids she hatched were her eggs as i had 3 females sharing a coop and nest hopping...

Here this is honeycrisp as in an appleyard colouring... another shot

Maybe? i found my calls fooled me for quite awhile i so hoped for another mini apple yard and nope not a single one.. mainly all blue fawn, and greys...

That would adorable! i cannot let mine loose due to my bigger ducks and the rogue cats around this area, my cat tries his best to keep them off the land but he's only capable of so much.

aw, so fun! okay yours must be loose?? see i cannot do that here.. unfortunately.

Certainly different, not really other than herding i don't train mine but then again they are a portion of the birds and animals here, i simply don't have the time to dedicate to that but i can see them being capable of quite a bit they are quite clever little quackers.
