Have just managed to get 3 to hatch and am chuffed to bits. Had 6 eggs, one infertile, and two died along the way...also expecting a few runners...but they are slow!
All sat on top of the guinea fowl eggs, that came early so am double deckering till I get sorted!
 
The UK and are now in Germany from what i've read. To me they appear to be a larger fatter version of the Welsh Harlequin but i'm pretty sure i have heard something along the lines of there colors being genetically different, but don't quote me on it. i think i've read citychicker talk about them a few times and their genetics, might pm 'em and see what you can't find out.
 
We rescued a drake that looked quite a bit like an Abacot Ranger, but I didn't have the contacts or resources to be sure. So he now lives in happy obscurity with three blue runner beauties.
 
Hi, this is the first one out...a boy...

4 runner ducks on their way out, and 2 appleyardxrunner too! So exciting.

Will post pics as they grow if anyone is interested in seeing what they grow into...
