Well, here goes it... My initial post!
I'm Carlis! I'm not technically new to chickens, but I am new to ducklings! I have three eggs currently... Sadly, I think only one of them may be alive and well, though... We'll find out within the next few days! They're all Khaki Campbell x Pekin ducks...
Hey Everyone!
We are looking for a 2, 6+ month old Khaki Campbell female ducks to place with our male duck.
Does anyone have 2 available for us? If you have a different breed of duck, we’d be open to that as well as we are not seeking to raise ducklings.
Thank you,
Lindsay and Jeff
Flock of five (females in front)
Our happy flock - now down to three, at 20 weeks - one dark and one light female and a beautiful green-headed drake!

Hi all!
As of this weekend, our flock of 5 (3 of which were male) became an elegant flock of 3, with a picture perfect male and two females...
Hello!
We have a fully enclosed run, approx 25-30ish square metres, with six pretty mellow, happy hens of varying breeds. (2 Rhode Island Red, 1 Blue Leghorn, 1 Gold Laced Wyandotte, 1 x Sussex Speckled and 1 Plymouth Rock). They have a relaxed pecking order and the one on top is a big softie...
So my two ducks that I now know are both hens do this thing where there necks vibrate followed by their head then they lunge I don't know if this is an excitement thing or not? Does anyone else's ducks do this or know why they are doing this?
Sorry for the double post, but I thought a new thread would attract more attention. The original post is here.
Okay, I have some more questions about my Cricketbug. She has been feeling a lot better recently, but she prefers mostly to hang out by herself and sleeps more than my other ducks...
Hello!
I have three duckies I am looking to swap for other duckies, though I am also interested in chickens, hatching eggs (chickens, duckies, or button quail), button quail, and certain kinds of pigeons.
These are the three lovey downy dorks I am looking to rehome- they are bonded, so if you...
My Khaki Campbell duck is only an estimated 3-4 months old. She’s lost all her visible baby fluff and can fly. She’s currently having some issues walking, running, or getting up. She’s high stepping and keeps falling. We’ve given her niacin and Apple cider vinegar already. Last time she did...
Is it possible? I was browsing through some pictures on Google and came across what was labeled as a Khaki Campbell, but his head feathers had a blue sheen instead of a green sheen.
I've noticed the past couple days that Colonel will run around flapping his wings. At first I thought that maybe he was attempting to fly out of his yard but he didn't.
I just want to make sure this is normal.
Is Colonel showing off?
Is he possibly trying to impress Duchess?
Colonel is 10...
Hi there! I’m new to the forum (and to duck ownership!) and I’m hoping I can get some confirmation or insight. We purchased 4 khaki campbells from a local farmer - but did not see parents. The ducklings were all mixed colours - more so than we expected for our chosen breed, and of those we chose...
Live outside Portland, Oregon metro area, have 30+ year farm with plenty of mowed pastures and secure barn. Would like to add 2 or 3 youngish adult female ducks, laying breed type, to my existing small flock. Currently have Welsh Harlequins and Indian Runners but what do you have? Will pay...
I just wanted to share some videos of my babies! All four are Khaki Campbell ducks. Sammy and Rufus are about 2 months old and Daisy and Cricket are about 3 weeks old. My dog is a Blue Heeler (Australian Cattle Dog) and her name is Elliott (Ellie). The girls have been staying in a see-no-touch...
Hi I was wondering if anyone could offer some advice. I have a khaki Campbell (just over a two years old) who injured her leg, it wasn’t broke so I placed her on bed rest so she could let the leg heal and prevent further damage. While on bed rest she became broody and has been sitting on 3 eggs...
I forgot to post this yesterday!
Yesterday I had gone out to refill the waterers for everyone and noticed that one of our hens had escaped and was in with the baby chicks and ducklings. Colonel wasn't having any of it so he kept going after the hen to chase her off.
The hen was really scared...
Hello all! New duck mom here, I've had my babies since a couple days old from TS, so they're about 8.5 weeks old... so my questions is, are they both khakis? My one almost looks like female mallard... and my other is really dark! I've searched this forum high and low a s just when I think I've...
One of my ducks was killed by a dog today (I have 2). Sadly it was my favourite duck who was friendly and calm whilst sitting on your lap. I got another duck today (8 week Khaki) so the other one wouldn’t be so lonely. Both of them are very afraid of me. They’re both around the same age. Is...

Our Khaki Campbells are 5 weeks old. I’m pretty sure we have 2 of each sex. We already have a well mannered, protective drake and one is enough for our small flock. I’m ready to try rehoming the boys. The drake has gotten out of his...
My two female muscovies have just started laying eggs! I was excited to have some fir baking that were non fertile. I have a larger flock of khakis and pekins hens and only one khaki Drake. I was fairly certain that he could not mate with my muscovies because I have yet to witness it. However...
I've recently purchased my first real sizable flock from Metzers and TSC, I've got 2 female Rouens, 4 female Pekins, 14 female Campbells, and 5 male Campbells. I chose these ducks because I own a local bakery and will use the eggs in baking to supplement my needs there, and we have a local...
