He pretty much leaves when she does. He stays in the pool a little longer but goes back in the nest box to join her. I think he gets lonely easily. I hope he is good with the babies when they hatch.

My mallard drake is so devoted to his hen. He lays right next to her in the box while she incubates!

My mallard hen has gone broody! I cant believe she started this early! Im in Ga! Its her first clutch so I hope she stays on it until the hatch!

Thanks for your input!

Thanks "Dude". And all im saying from my experience raising wild breed ducks for 20 years is wild mallards eggs are buff. I made the rookie mistake once of acquiring a rouen and her eggs were green!

Nope they are all buff color. No green. Photo is accurate. Same color as wild mallards ive seen in the wild! Yours might be rouens. Theirs are more green.

They are the color of any wild mallard egg ive ever seen.

My mallard hen has already started her nest!

The drake is definitely not a mallard. A mallard hybrid perhaps!

Poor guy! I dont see a stub. Im thinking he was born that way!?

They look exactly like my mallards who are 8 weeks old. One has more orange on bill and other dark olive. Today the orange billed one quacked like a hen when i caught her to put her in the outside pen and the olive bill made a low pitched sound not a quack! I believe I have a hen and a drake!

Congrats! That will be me next Spring!

Our two mallards live on the sunporch and want to come in the house so bad but they poop too much! I need diapers for them!!!

What kind? I want some for mine

How do you keep him from pooping all over your house! Mine poop constantly so i dont bring them in but they want to come in!

This is Al and Toona named after the Lake they were rescued from.
