Drake Khaki Campbell and mallard/golden 300 ducklings need rehoming

[ShelbyCiave]

To those in the San Diego region and duck lovers everywhere:

I ordered 4 female blue Swedish ducklings about 7 weeks ago from Metzer farms. When I brought them home from the post office, I was accidentally given 4 additional ducks. I ordered strictly females to appease the two, one year old, drakes I already have. I have given the 8 new ducklings so much love and affection and they are very loving and affectionate in return.

Sadly, three of the extra ducklings I received are male khaki Campbell’s and the fourth is a male mallard/golden 300 hybrid. Unfortunately, I cannot keep the additional males, so if anyone is looking for a khaki Campbell drake, mallard/300 drake, or 4 drakes , I am putting them up for adoption/looking to rehome them. It devastates me to have to do this, but my two drakes are a LOT to handle with the hormones surging! Thanks for reading!

Oh I just saw this post. They were drakes then and what I had read was right. Thanks for letting us know and good luck on finding them good homes. They are beautiful.

Thank you! I ended up keeping everyone. They all have over an acre to forage in, so for now it’s working. Come spring, that may change… but I’m already working on a solution for that
