Half Welsh Harlequin half Buff Orpington??

[BirdyGirl7198]

Does anyone have any pictures of half welsh and half buff ducks?? I have some eggs in the incubator and want to be able to tell the pure breeds and "mutts" apart as I'll be selling some of them. Please post a picture of your ducks/ducklings!
Thanks in advance,
BirdyGirl

Anybody?

Oh, they are going to be precious! And I wish I could help! I have four buffs, I adopted them as adults and we aren't planning on hatching any this year.

I have pictures of my pure bred buff ducklings, and my pure bred WH ducklings... but that's not exactly what you're looking for is it?

 

[BirdyGirl7198]

Not exactly but I'd still love to see them! It might be helpful to know the differences in appearance. But from what I hear it's not easy to tell them apart when they're so young! Thanks for your reply

I to plan on WH I've read great things about this breed. A handsome bird indeed. I have a small neighbor yard. I need ducks that are not route. I would love to heard what owners have to say about this. I have been working on this idea for a while. Any info would be great

@irocblu, they are great ducks. They lay a LOT and are small. You should clip their wings and have them enclosed but my birds like to stick to a small area maybe 8x5 and that is their choice!

WH fly? I did not know this

@irocblu Everything I read on them said they can't fly but my drake cleared a 6 foot privacy fence.
