Hi... I have an 3ish week old Peking duckling who is GIGANTIC! We purchased him from TSC, along with 3 others... 2 khaki campbells and 1 mystery duckling. the reason i am wondering about his size is because the "mystery" duckling, Dollypop was assumed to be a Peking as well, and TSC told us that they may be a male and female Peking... well, Kernel the "mutant" duckling is now well over 2 pounds while Dollypop is the smallest. I don't know how much the others weigh but it's definitely NOT over 2lbs... What is strange though is that they all are about the same developmentally... what is causing my duckling's hugeness? or is it just a Peking thing?
P.S. Kernel is often panting while the others are all comfy-cozy in their brooder... i don't want Kernel to get too hot, but i also don't want Brownie, Frowny and Dollypop to freeze... Help?
P.P.S I can post pix upon request
