Khaki Campbells

[jmc]

I love our Campbells.

They are the incarnation of 'Joie de Vie'!!!

The girls are so so cute and of course, the drakes are really lovely.

Wonderful to watch. They do a 50 yard dash in record time, I swear.

We have 2 drakes and 10 hens and they have a ball.

No not as cuddly as muscovies (but what is?), but my 'baby noisies' as I call them have captured my heart. What I mean is that they are all clucking impatiently for me to let them out of their cage in the am. It's really funny. I walk up to the shed their cage is in and they can't see me. they are inside clucking away. Then they stop to take a breath and then I cry out "Oh you Baby Noisies!!" Then they all start up quacking and clucking and pacing before the door for me to let them out. Then I let out the (carpeted) ramp--and stand back!!

love em.

They have taught me alot about keeping ducks, really.

I had a pair of them they are shy and they didn't like to interact with anyone!!!! When I picked them up to socialize them they squirmed and quacked till I gave up and set them down.........I am sticking with Pekins

I got ducks for the eggs & chose KCs. Like the others said, they're skittish but great layers. Two of my hens have even gone broody.
