Question for those that show your ducks!

[Rosecomb-Ryan]

For a pullet she looks nice, Body and feet color. How old is she?

For a 4H Show she is fine. But Most of my White pullets have tons of caruncling by that size. Though some of my white hens are 'over done'.

She is 6 months old. She had stunted growth for awhile and then piced up again. She was the micro I PM'ed you about a while ago. She is getting in her caruncles right now. She has more now than in that picture. All around her eyes and her bill and they are starting to connect.

Yup, But Im guessing her caruncling will be more like a pied/production muscovy's then a show one. Quality Whites are VERY hard to find. Only 3-4 people that I know of in the Country with good ones..

I say let her give it a try. It could benefit everyone to get a new person interested in the hobby. I don't know what 4H rules are since I never belonged to one, but I understand they vary greatly from club to club.

Here Ryan. This is her from tonight and her filling in more.

Showing a neighbor's animal is how I started in 4-H. After a few times my parents bought me a lamb. I raised sheep til Iwas in college.
