Pekin X Swedish Cross Breeds

@GeoGreyWolf
Did you ever get your eggs going???
If so did the mix turn out how you wanted?​

 

[GeoGreyWolf]

Yes, I managed to hatch 4 of the eggs.. 3 are a Pekin x Swedish cross it looks like and the other is a Rouen x Swedish cross.

Yes I cant wait to see, the next step will be sexing the ducks.. I might need to learn how to vent sex when they are ducklings. I am hoping for a good female to male ratio so i dont have to try and rehome more ducks again.

Oh man they are pretty!! I wish I got an all white one out of the mix!!
I just put more eggs in the bator!! So fingers crossed! ​

How many weeks are they? You should be able to voice sex in a couple weeks. Vent sexing isn’t suggested after the first week of life since it can injure them.
