Ended Contest #6 Flapper Contest - 8th Annual Easter Hatch Along

[LadyCluck77]

What breeds do they have there?

They had Ancona, Harlequin, Cayuga, Appleyard, Rouen, Khacki Campbell, Swedish, all breeds I'm sure I would like, And man, they were all adorable and tempting.
Any recommendations? I'm a chicken keeper, but duck-curious.

I don't know much about those breeds, but l bet lots of people in the duck thread could comment.

Here are my entries for the contest!

Snuggles, my Woodie drake.


Dory, my Buff Orpington hen.

Akkkkk! You have a Wood Drake!!! Now I know how Julie Bird feels... Jealawes (That is a portmanteau of Jealous and awe at the same time). Beautiful and a super flapper. (Dory is very cute too but I have a Buff so I'm just gawking at Snuggles....) Do you have any videos of Snuggles flying or do you have to clip him?

I spent 30 minutes sitting in the run waiting for ''that'' picture today. I didn't even get a decent one. Patience is a virtue...

Spray them down with a garden hose (if they're) ducks.

Darned chickens. Ha, they'd still probably flap quite a bit if they got wet.

 

[Tevyes Dad]

It would probably still work, just the ducks would LIKE it.

Lol IKR?

Yes we do!

Thanks! Yes, I will put the links to some videos below. He and Nyasa my mallard love flying around together.

Most of the video is of Fin (my Buff/Mallard drake that I am giving to @Spyderk117 .)

In this one Snuggles is only at the very end, just gliding in for a landing.

That's great you have patience!

Oh my. These videos just made me cry. Not in a bad way. Very moving. These ducks are miracles. Strong, fast, graceful. Loved their long runway. Soft cuddly planes.
