The Duck Thread

[Forest of Ducks]

Hello out there! I bought 5 ducklings from a lady and 1 of them is a Rouen the other 4 she didn't know what breed or cross they are. Can anyone tell me what they are? She had a mallard, Indian runners, rouens, and khakis.

Hey! Does anyone out there have any tips or tricks they do to keep algae ( or what ever the green slime is ) from growing on the inside of there waterer?

I just have to scrub things out from time to time. I think sunlight and warmth encourages algae growth.

They look like Rouen - Runner crosses to me.

Thanks! The sunlight heat thing makes since its only the outside one and I live in texas where it's HOT!

Ok just wondering but will drakes protect his girls or sacrifice himself if a predator attacks like a rooster does?

Hey forest of ducks, those ducklings look like some of mine. Mine are khaki and saxony mix (saxony is a sub breed of rouens)

Yay! Mine aren't alone!

Depends on the individual drake, I think.
