Da' Cute and Cuddly Call Duck thread!

Updated pictures of my little flock of mixed colour calls. They were 6 weeks old last Wednesday.

I notice a couple have a distinct quack, and some are raspy, would it be too early to sex them based on voices?

Adorable!! My calls love the water more then my other ducks. They especially like when I spray them with the hose (on mist setting) they open their bills and try to catch the water

Can I ask a call duck question? since they are a petite breed... how is the best way to buy them? I have loved them for a long while and seeing several pairs displayed at my local fair only reignited that interest lol but can you keep just a pair? or like other ducks better to do all drakes/ducks or drakes with a duck ratio.

I have Muscovy here so they would have to be kept separate, so i'd likely only get two... but not sure how is best to do this. Thanks.

My call ducks are housed with my muscovy with no issues what-so-ever. I guess you have muscovy drakes, and that could cause issues.

I'd say keep a trio. It's always better for the girl to have the attention shared, right?

I'd love to see that.

I'll video them doing it when I get home from work and upload it to Youtube and link it back here You'll love it lol

If they are running and I spray them, they turn and run sideways so they can get the water. It's hilarious!
