Grey Call Ducks

[ctaynton]

Does anybody know where I can get some Grey Call Ducklings? I live in Oregon and don't want to pay TOO much for shipping. I don't know anyone near me that has them. Can anyone help??

Odd are you won't find ducklings-most breeders won't ship ducklings(it's a really bad idea) after they are a day old.
There are some Grays on featherauction(no, they're not mine

) and you could try to get some eggs from a breeder.
Good luck-Grays are SO in demand right now!

How do I find a breeder?

The best place to look is callduck.org.
That is The Call Breeders of America and you'll find some really good breeders there.
Patty Pickard of Faith Valley Waterfowl has Grays, I believe.
Would you prefer adults ducks or eggs? Also, what quality are you interested in? Pet, Breeder or Show?

Dave Holderread in Corvallis or somewhere thereabouts raises Calls among other ducks, but I don't know if he has any to sell right now. But I know that lots of people here love the quality of his birds. Here's a link to his website:

Not a good idea to ship baby Calls though...I'd work toward more mature birds or eggs. Baby Calls are very susceptible to chilling and have a higher metabolic rate; larger duck breeds are not as critical.

I ended up getting hatching eggs and have gray and white both due to hatch around 5/7 was the easiest and safest way to get them here to FL. Nw just hoping for a good hatch. Good luck finding some.
