    Pictures of black swedish x mallard mix?

    The mom is either a black swedish or black swedish x mallard. She has a black head and neck, a clean white chest with no hazy edges, and brown plumage for the rest. The male is 100% mallard. Does anyone have pictures of this cross?

    Will My Mallard Come Back? :(

    hi guys, I’ve already posted a few times about how my male mallard got loose at night and we found him missing Monday morning (4/9). Something had seemed to have been stealing / raging eggs I hadn’t found in our yard. We live in NJ in a suburban area and I raised three ducks together, one...

    First Time Duckling Mom

    Hello! I'm Sage & I am raising 4 baby ducklings. I got them one week ago & they are growing so fast! I hope to learn from everyone's experiences about how to raise a healthy flock. So, a little bit about my babies: 1. I have two white pekins (Sauron & Galadriel) and two mallards (Freya & Thor)...

    Help! My Pekins are chasing off all the Mallards!

    Hi everyone! I need help! I rescued Pekin ducks from the shelter last summer. There was already one Pekin duck (Donald) on our pond who had lost his mate. He was on the pond before we moved here, so I adopted the 3 ducks so that he wouldn't be so lonely in the winter when the mallards fly away...

    UPDATE: My Mallard Is Missing

    Hi guys! Tonight I put up about 90 flyers in the area and got a call from a man who said he saw him about a mile from the house at a Home Depot flying low and taking breaks, walking. He thought it was odd because he was alone. He ended up flying towards a stream that spans a few townships but...

    Will My Mallard Come Home?

    i posted earlier about how I thought something happened with my male Mallard. After searching my backyard even more I see no sign of struggle or harm, just an open hutch door and a few missing eggs (I’m assuming my dogs wouldn’t have found / been interested in all of a sudden eating those eggs)...

    My Mallard is Missing

    Hi guys, I have three ducks. One male Pekin, one male Mallard and one female duck whose all black win some white speckles on her chest. They’re all best friends and totally comfortable around people. We raised them inside and we treat them as pets. They have a hutch and every night we put them...

    Duckling age?

    I got these two mallard ducklings three days ago from a feed store. They are VERY vocal when they’re happy (warm, snack etc). But I was wondering how old they are? Can someone estimate? This is my first time owning any kind of bird!

    Female Mallard is weak and laying soft eggs

    My mother's female mallard, Little Bossy, had her first lay last year. She laid right on time (between mid-March and the end of July), and with the exception of the first few eggs being soft, the rest were normal and there were no problems at all. She started to lay again about a week ago, and...

    Mallards??

    These are my two month old mallards ( I think). Are they two big to be mallards, and rouens? The khaki is about 2 weeks younger, that’s why it’s so small.

    Oh no! Not the breed I was told they were!

    So I brought home our very first ducks today. (We have over 20 chickens and some rabbits too)! Well... Five little yellow Peking ducklings... Cool beans. Thought the other two were Khaki Campbell, however when I started looking up their images, they look nothing alike! Mine resemble Mallard or...

    6TH ATTEMPT ON HATCHING MY CALL DUCK EGGS

    I have a female snowy call and my drake is mallard. I'm kinda stuck because from what I'm reading call ducks are hard to hatch. I'm hatching from a GQF 1502 temp at 99.5 and my humidity is around 54% until lock down. From what I'm reading call ducks need assistance hatching because of beak and...

    Wild Ducks

    We have a small hobby farm with a variety of ducks. Some of which were Mallards that we raised. Some wild ones even stayed with us for the winter! Love it! I am looking for some more wild ducks that I can either get as eggs or chicks. I found that if I can raise them from the beginning near...

    I’m so worried.... what do I do???

    So roughly 3 months ago our family added a pekin duck to our small flock so that our mallard hen had another duck since her sister passed away. We found out a few weeks later that this pekin was a drake. My parents were worried about ducklings but I assured them that that would only happen if...

    Duck sneezing and not acting themselves?

    Before I freak everyone out, I’m probably worrying over nothing right now. I brought my two ducks in for their nightly bath tonight and after they were done I noticed my mallard hen, Billy, was acting a bit... strange? She’s always been a very calm and quiet duck but when I took her out she just...

    HELP!

    Lately my year old female mallard has been having some issues. About a month ago she stopped laying (after laying every day) for about a week, as well as laying an egg that was severely deformed (vet said tubular pregnancy). I made sure she had extra oyster shell in her room, she went back to...

    Getting more ducks?

    i have 3 drakes and am planning on getting more ducklings in the spring. (A few females and more drakes) Will the older ones accept the new ones or hurt them? Not like them? I read somewhere they might not take a liking to them. Thanks
