Cayuga Pictures Please?

[BeccaOH]

Hen around 6 months.

Near black egg here is from a Cayuga hen's first laying. Gray one is probably a second egg.

2 black cayuga ducklings in with brown KC and yellow WH. Back when my ducks were first in the brooder.

all cayugas vary from near black to off white, none ever seem to lay all black all the time, you tend to get a mix

Well hello there kinda neighbor LOL

Right now I just have ducks free ranging together, I have:

1 Blue Swedish Drake
1 Black Swedish Duck
3 Buff Ducks ( EGGcellent Broodies)
1 Rouen Duck
1 Blue Swedish X Buff Duck ( Blue Swedish colored)
1 Blue Swedish X Buff young Drake, ( Blue Swedish colored)

One of the Buffs hatched 12 Ducklings about two weeks ago and the other 2 of the Buffs and the BS X Buff hen are setting right now, one has duck eggs from my ducks, one has turkey eggs, and one has call duck eggs from tonini that I am hoping to be able to add the list when they hatch.

EDIT The one that hatched the 12 ducklings a couple weeks ago is now broody again, I'd like to get a few more call eggs to go under her.

90% of the time my Cayuga eggs are light grey. These were just from the start of their laying cycle.

yep, that's about how mine do too, you'll get a handful of the dark one , like you said, usually early in, then they go greyish white
