i own 1 black Swedish duck. I am dying for more. I just need to find eggs. Anyone have any to spare?

Sorry, all I have are blues and they won't start laying for quite a while yet.

I guess my 2 blues are imprinted on me. They follow me around everywhere and I have to sneak off to get a break. Will they stop doing this when they get older? Sheesh, I hope so. They are as cute as can be, but sometimes I have to do things without them, lol.

I have one black Swedish (butterscotch) I don't now if butterscotch is a male or female. I call him a boy. he is as big as my jumbo Peking female and has a greenish head. he has never tried to mate as has laid no eggs. he has a low quiet quack. what do you guys think he is? thanks!

Boy. Mine make a whispery, raspy quack, as compared to girls with a louder quack.

Well I saw my first blue Swedish today, in the middle of the road on a busy 55 mph highway of all places! I have one ordered for aug but I've only ever seen black. I'm super excited to get her. I almost picked the one out of the middle of the road but it started taking off when I parked my car and opened the door to get out. I'd hate to see him as road kill. There was also a Muscovy in the road with him but when he saw cars coming he flew off

I have 2 Swedish Blues and 1 Mallard. The Swedes are a little skittish and completely freak if I pick them up. If I take one away from the group, my loud-mouthed one (Spot) squeaks like a maniac.

This was their first outdoor excursion last Sunday (6/9/13)







This was when I first got them - they were about a week old.



Again - one of the first pics I took of them after I first got them.

Ya, I'm surprised too how quiet ducks are. My male is whispery and gosh, the girls are louder! Glad it's not that way with the human species!
