Sexing Silver Appleyard Ducks

[onaharley]

Well, I’ve ordered four Appleyard females from Meyer, after trying various local options. I’m hoping that a 2:1 duck to drake ratio will be okay next spring. If it isn’t, I will probably rehome one of these gentlemen.

That’s great!! I will ordering more in the late winter next year, but this time I will go and pick them up since it’s only a 2 hour drive for me to Meyer!! Please post pictures when you get them

I put this rubber duck in the pool so they’d know that’s where ducks are supposed to swim

Meyer is going to charge me to cancel my SA order. How bad would ten ducks smell in the summer...?
