Thanks for sharing, @JLynnsDuckies

You're welcome Deb! Their personalities are great! Except when they decide to go after a gander who gets his head stuck in the divider. They plucked his fluff and left a little gouge in Oscar's head. My poor guy! It's healing and he's okay thankfully. Other then that incident they are wonderful!

Welcome to BYC, nithinG! I'm not quite sure where you're located, but I believe I've read that they'll stop laying when it's cold outside. I'm sure others with more knowledge will chime in.

Fertilized eggs? Cute ducklings?

I would guess some would look mixed and a few might come out looking like the parents but have ressive trates

My goofy Pekins have started something new. When they're in the pool they appear to be attempting an underwater headstand and then once they're right side up again, they immediately start flapping one wing against the water. It's like they're making their own little rain clouds. Goofy babies! It is cute, but they keep scaring the Rouens out of the pool when they do this.
