The are pretty!

But for some reason, they look more like Mini Welsh Harlequins, and Australian Spotteds look more like the large breed Silver Appleyard to me. Trust me! I have large Silver Appleyards!

But I love calls and other bantam ducks, they're awesome.

I know you'd love them too!
Ducks are addicting.

i see what you mean. at least with the females

 

[Duck Keeper]

It's strange, but that's what they're named, so I go along with it.

I might be getting call eggs soon! Because I fried my muscovy eggs the last two days of incubation/not turning.

That hurts.

Because thirty five days is a LONG time to take care of eggs, only to kill them days before hatching.



EDIT: info

 

[tdgill]

where have you found call eggs?

 

[Duck Keeper]

Well a friend at work's had ducks for over forty years, and she's doing it as a favor.

I hope all works out this time. o_o;

 

[tdgill]

oh lucky you! gonna be keeping my eye out

 

[Duck Keeper]

Around fall is when people start selling adult or juvenile calls, so that may be an option to look into.
