I love the runners. I would get some but I love all the colors and can't decide. Which colors do you like best? Are they as flighty and nervous as everybody says they are?

They are about as nervous as any other duck. They're quick little buggers though. I'm sure you've heard this before, but it all depends on how much human contact they get as ducklings. The ones I raised myself will come right up to me, but the ones that were raised by my friend's broody ducks are totally skittish.

Oh, and my favorite color is the one I don't have yet. I need a pure white, a pure black and the one that's pencilied with the mallard colors.

My blues and my chocolates are awesome birds, but so are my silvers. Most of those were the ones that I hand-raised (the oddly small ones).

I want silver runners! I know two people trying to stablilize them, but they aren't offering duclings or eggs yet. DRAT!

Here's another photo of Peepers. The fawn & white boy in the background is the same one. Notice that his head's not in the frame. Also Caillou Cayuga and one of the khaki girls...
