Pics of an Adult Golden 300 (Requests from multiple people)

[Redwood Violet]

I have a couple of layer 300 drakes. They were sent to me by accident. I did get female replacements eventually. I still have three of the four - apparently they are good eating as one of my husband's buddies reports. The green headed guys in this photo are male layer 300's.

Lol I had to go set up a photobucket account to get this on here. They are sitting in our fallow garden plot.

Wow! I have a rouen cross that looks just like this. He looks like a rouen minus the red on the neck and the white neck band.

May I ask you what they looked like as ducklings? We had to have a replacement blue sweed sent to us from Metzer's and along with her came this little bit of a thing that looked a TON like a rouen duckling , but I am suspicious it could be a golden 300 drake...

They are little buff colored dudes with darker fluff on their heads and backs. They look like a large harlequin or khaki ducklings. I think Metzer sends little token mallards or rouens though; I've gotten a couple of extras that are classic little black and yellow ducklings.

Thanks! Good to know! Definately a Rouen then..we will build him a separate bachler pad. He is a dear, but I don't want him passing his (non

)layer genes to any babies that may come. I have a Welshie boy that I want to be the Daddy.

What color are the wing bars on the golden 300 females? How about the males?

I always wondered what the golden 300 looked like she's really pretty....

I have females and their wing bars are brownish and they are 15 weeks old. I wonder why mine are different.
