Okay, question... Why don't you want crests?


:)

I get that a lot. :p It's a lethal gene, if they get two copies of it they either die before hatch or are seriously deformed and die. I hatched one not too long ago, it had a giant lump on its head and only one eye, it made it a day. It's not so much I don't want crest it's more along the lines of it is not practical for me to keep both crested drakes and hens (or many anyway) I'm trying to breed my ducks to do really well with little maintenance and as little food as possible and can find 80+% of its food so it's not practical for me to breed ducks that'll die or have problems. Make sense?
 
Lol. Good luck then. That's how I started my duck flock, then I made a bator and more than tripled my flock. (Starting number was ten (well we bought 20 but I culled half of those as there were quite a few drakes.) and now I have over 50 :the But I'm gonna be culling down to about twenty five. I've almost made up my mind to sell all my young crested females since most of my drakes are crested.
Thanks :) I'm gonna need it lol. Wow FIFTY!!!!! That stinks that you need to Cull some, but you gotta do what ya gotta do. The two roosters that I got rid of.... Well that's what I did to them. It was my first culling. I have 2 ducks and I feel like they are a handful :lau I do let them wonder around the house though and they will follow behind me. I guess it makes up for the huge mess they always make :D
