MIXED/PURE WATERFOWL EGG CHAIN!!!

[Wifezilla]

I thought ducks didnt eat garden greens/yellows/pinks/reds? Especially the broad-leafed ones?

Are you kidding?? That is their favorite stuff to snack on!

Offer still stands at 6 eggs - 3 khaki/runner 3 khaki/buff.
OH!!! My duck JJ we thought was a purebred khaki is actually a runner/khaki and, apparently a GIRL! I got quacked at today

(We thought JJ was a drake because its legs were turning yellow)

Here is what the khaki/runner mix looks like...

a couple of days old

About 4 weeks​

Wifezilla..if i had any to exchange i'd take them! i love them!

i wish mine were old enough! what age do ducks start to lay? and breed?

Aren't they adorable??

I believe ducks are supposed to start laying about 24 weeks, give or take

I have a feeling when my ducks start laying, I am in trouble on this swap. I am not even looking for this kind of mix and still want them, lol.

 

[becky3086]

I cannot believe we are stuck on the first offer! Maybe we should have someone start with a different offer, though I don't know why no one wants these cute ones. I really wish mine were laying, I keep checking but no luck. I haven't seen them mating anyway, so it is probably not close to time anyway.

I would love to have them too. But my inubators are full plus all my ducks are taking a break and some are sitting.

That's my problem too. I am only getting 2 eggs a day now, if that, and both my bators are full. I have 3 hens that just started brooding, and they each have at least 12 eggs under them. Plus they are all bantams. I really don't have any place to put more eggs right now, or I'd be snatching these up!! That baby is such a cutie!

shelley,
Do you mean they are all call ducks? Take the eggs away, we want some! lol.

 

[Pidgey104]

I had two white male call ducks drop off in my yard the other day. I have no idea what I'm going to do with them now.

Gosh, I wish! No, the hens that are brooding are chicken bantams, no call ducks here
