Hello all! I have added 14 new chicks to my tiny flock of 2! Our coop and run, thankfully, are big enough to have it separated into two so everyone can see each other but the babies are safely in their own section. I’m hopeful they are all females as that’s what I paid for! I snapped a few...

I have 3 girls that are 23.5 weeks old and 2 that are 21.5 weeks old! This is the first time they've laid and it's very egg-citing :) :) :) This was yesterday morning and this morning they've given me 1 new egg! I'm on the West Coast in Canada and our mornings are quite frosty now, I assumed...

Hello! I'm very new to ducks and I have 3 white Runners and 3 black Runners that have been crossed with something else. The white boy is very easy to spot from his tail curl and his voice is so distinctly different from the females. The black ones I was told were 3 females but I do have 1 who...

I'm thinking this is the beginning of Charlie's tail curl. What do you think? He's got a cute little wiggle haha

I have the space to do that so I may just do the full 30 days!

I picked up 3 new black female Runner Ducks today! I had 1 male and 2 females already. I took the advice of folks on here and added a separate area for the new ducks beside the others. I'm lucky enough to have a garden shed I emptied and added a pool with hay for a shelter for the new ones...

My 3 Runner Ducks are 13 weeks old, 1 male and 2 females. I have the opportunity to bring home 3 more Runners that are 15 weeks old. I'm going to look at them in a few days and choose the females. I'm hoping I can hear the difference between the males and females. Because my 3 now have such...

Oh that made me laugh a lot! Haha I love it!

Thank-you!! I'll give that try!

Oh I forgot to add that, they're 12 weeks old!

3 days ago I got my new Runner Ducks! The first night was a big struggle to get them in their coop, the second day they didn't want to leave the coop and spent the entire day inside but today...today was a great day!! I opened the door at dawn and after a few minutes they came out, stretched...

Thanks!! It took a while to get them tucked in!! I ended up having to pick up the ladies and put them in and then the male followed right in himself!

I'm a beginner in all things concerning ducks! I brought my 3 new runner ducks home this morning, 2 females and 1 male. They haven't been exploring much, haven't touched their food but they have been for a swim in their kiddie pool and have all been drinking water. I have 2 questions... 1...

I just brought these 3 home and wanted to see if you thought they are runners or runner x with something? So happy to have them 😍

I have three, 12 week old ducks that I bought yesterday. The woman told me they were Runner Ducks but I don't think so. What do you think?
