We bought 3 'premium' ducks from Tractor Supply. They were more expensive, but they had no idea what they actually were. They're all around 12 weeks old.
Theodore ^^^. She makes a high pitch squeak sound and waddles like a regular duck.
Simon ^^^ She stands up right like an Indian runner and...
Hi!
A year or so ago I rescued these ducks. I’ve been wondering what breed the little grey beauty in the center is. The other ducks, for reference, are Black Swedish and a Pekín. The lady I rescued these ducks from said she thought the breed was silver something-or-other but couldn’t remember...
I've done a lot of research but I was only finding a mention of cooling on this forum. I read & saw some video talk about misting, just not cooling. I'm using a Nuture Right 360 & crocheted a cover for mine. I had a 90% hatch rate out of this incubator for quail a few weeks ago, so I'm curious...
Good evening everyone! I was wondering if anyone had any breed recommendations for good egg laying ducks? Specifically, ducks that will do good with chickens, (I have Cochins and Barred Rocks) and ducks that are hardy, (can tolerate the heat and cold of MN.) Unfortunately, I have lost two of my...
My (VERY) thoughtful son dropped off 6 ducks for Father’s Day. He felt that since we were doing well with the chickens he gifted us last year, the ducks would be the same. Thank you son. 🙄
These ducks were purchased from Tractor Supply. The tag only said “ducks” and a price. They are supplied...
Hello,
I just bought three baby Khaki Campbell duckings, but I am not sure that they are Khaki Campbells..I know for sure the completely brown duckling is for sure, but I am not so certain the other two with black are.. PLease help!
Hey, I have five ducks and haven’t had any issues with them, really. They are about a year and held old. A few months ago one became egg bound and it took a few hours and she was fine after laying. Then the other day I had another one become egg bound and she was fine within an hour. I just went...
I bought the eggs on eBay they were listed as Aylesbury. However apart from their light bills (in real life the bills are lighter than in the photo) they don’t have the weight or look of the Aylesbury. I have since been told they are commercial by someone and not Aylesbury. But upon looking...
Hello! First time Duck owner here!
We had a broody hen ( no rooster) so we decided to have a little fun and let her sit on some random duck eggs I picked up from someone on Facebook. She successfully hatched two but they look nothing alike! Any help with breed identification or guesses on sex...
Hello!
This mama is very social n friendly, comes up to me n lets me sit by her. Is she a dumped pet? I’ve never seen her before.
The babies come up to me n are very comfortable around me too
Back in March I got day old ducks and ended up with 2 drakes and 2 ducks, once they were 4 months I got 3 more girls 7-12 weeks old that were mixed but I still can’t tell the breeds as I am new to this.
I was told I was given a Welsh harlequin (biggest), buff Orpington (smallest) and a Swedish...
My Khaki Campbell ducks are starting to get their voices in. So far I can’t tell the difference between a female quack & male noise. I’ve been looking at their beaks and have noticed that some are getting lighter, some darker, some with caramel colored beans, and some dark beans. Does anyone...
Hi everyone I I incubated my eggs at 96.5 by mistake because the temperature is stable and I trust my incubator I never checked it my mistake, humidity 49 to 55 no more no less I candle them on day 26 and they are all alive and moving a lot with the air sack big and the embryo covers almost all...
Hi there! I have six ducklings whose voices are JUST starting to change. I’m waiting for those to see who’s male and female. But I’m so curious about one of them (the only NOT khaki Campbell)— it was yellow/white as a duckling, and its feathers are growing in buff. It’s friendlier & braver than...
