Rouen Duck thread

[flynntheduck]

Yeah...I'm pretty sure its still too soon to tell and mine is starting to make noises that seem like they may be turning into quacks...so I think only time will tell...and on another note it looks like we have matching duckling pairs lol this pic is a few weeks old but its the most recent one I have of them together

how cool! What is your other duck? How old are they?

Duh you are from the buff thread too huh?

 

[lvmomma]

Yeah lol

Kind of an odd pair huh? I have noticed my buff is a bit more docile than my rouen/mallard so far. Buff isn't as wild when I pick her up but the rouen is kind of lazy once he gets comfy in my lap. He clawed me up last night as I carried him up the stairs to the kitchen. I had to wrap him in a towel to get him back down stairs. Ruby the buff I can easy just carry and she doesn't flail all over. Haha!

If you're seeing green its probably a male. The feathers start pronouncing themselves around the bill area first.

The green is because green is a structural color...the feather structure refracts light so we see the green light wavelengths. That
does look like a drake.

Either way he's so pretty and cute

The mostly black one was in with the Rouens at TSC. What breed do you think?

Possible a sweede

Could be a golden 300 hybrid

Or a Swedish ( the males look the exact same )
