Im waiting on some to come in to my local feed store that is Big R,problem is when I asked where they order from, they said they werent allowed to tell me! Weird huh? Anyways Id love to see your ducks!

My daughter LOVES her Cayuga. We just got her a new baby with a mini crest!

Day olds

"teenage" duck

Getting in feathers...you can see the greenish colors.

Difference between the two Cayugas....one was a SLUG MACHINE! She never stopped eating them things, of course I liked that she kept my garden clean but I didn't like the pooch she developed due to her pigginess.

Enough pics???? LOL

Cayugas are a great choice!

Edited to add: I got mine from Metzers.

They are beautiful! I cant wait! I dream about them...Im hoping to get them sooner than later. Its just a waiting game until some come into my local feed stores. I am trying to find a local breeder-to no avail

I would be pretty upset if a store didn't tell me where the ducks were born. You want to make sure that the place gets tested, etc.

Regardless, maralynn28's babies are adorable! My Cayuga x Khaki Campbell-Cayuga mixed ducklings look exactly like her Cayuga ducklings.

My Cayuga, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, is a lot of fun. He doesn't like to be held, but he loves to be around people. Since he's a new daddy, he can't be with his girl, Beaker, or his babies. Beaker is a crested Khaki Campbell x Cayuga mix. She's a sweetheart. She LOVES to cuddle. Currently, Bunsen is outside with the chickens, which he hates (but he loves to be outside in the chicken run).

I cant believe how cute baby ducks can be! Ive decided to wait for a particular feed store that orders from Mcmurray(which I just found out drop ships from Metzers!) I will be sure to post pictures as soon as they come in-whenever that might be! I feel like Im waiting to go into labor or something.The suspense is making me crazy!
