Breed

[Millerj23717]

A friend of my husbands gave us this chick, the friend has no idea what breed she is, as he thought he was purchasing baby ducks any idea? Shes all black with light teal green color on her tail feathers. She’s (hope not he) outside our main coop getting used to our girls and seems a bit aggressive (maybe just scared) thank you!

Thank you! Maybe that’s why he’s aggressive? I don’t own a single rooster and wanted to keep it that way

Then it is probably a he, does stand like a he, are you going to keep him? if you are not, I recommend finding a home fast, roosters are hard to rehome...you may get lucky though

I don’t own any roos so I’m not sure how they stand? More upright? I’d like to rehome him. I feel badly, but I’d like to keep an all girl flock at this point.

 

[Millerj23717]

Yeah, they are more cautious of there surroundings and stand pretty much vertically.

Oh yea he does just that and won’t let me near him without trying to fly at me and attack it seems

I'd put him on CL as a fryer only then.

Oh man. I would feel so bad doing that. I’m sure he can be tamed, no?
