I think I have khaki cambell ducks, 6 of them, can you tell me.?

Are these Khaki Campbell ducks, or what breed are they, does anyone have suggestions or anything information on this specific breed? I'm new to raising ducks.

They are Khakis. I love mine! They have personality. They can only fly a few feet off the ground.

As best I can tell you have several boys. If you look at the feathers above the tail, boys have dark, solid feathers, and girls have lighter, two-toned feathers. If you have any girls, they are fabulous layers and their eggs taste great. You want to have a ratio of 4 girls to every 1 boy so you might have to work on your ratios.

Yours will get their breeding colors soon and they will be really pretty. Also, their feathers bleach in the sun making them much lighter as time goes on.

They are very handsome! Mine are much lighter than that.

Yes they are KCs and it looks like at least 3 drakes in the bunch. They are medium sized (about the same size as my large chickens), good layers, eggs are a bit larger than the largest chicken eggs I get, a bit skittish.

Khakis for sure!

@cheezenkwackers - Love the photo with the egg- the drake looks so excited and proud
