Thanks

Will do. Been looking on Craigslist for ducks. seems people either want to get rid of their drakes or a whole flock. Don't want anymore drakes here. So I will keep looking.

I would need to get a friend for her, it is just the proper thing to do.

ML, maybe she will, and maybe she won't. I have never had a duck stay away more than one night. She was strong willed and the now deceased (from natural causes) drake's fave. Maybe she is looking for him? (He passed 7 weeks ago)

Thanks for all your replies. She has not exhibited any noticeable signs of illness or injury. She has been going to a nest (too old to lay eggs anymore) every morning for a couple of months and sitting there for a few hours, which a couple of my other ducks historically have done. The last...

Pretty bird!

fitz cee, Welcome to BYC!! I feed my regular feed plus some whole corn mixed in in the winter and make sure they are never without food during the daylight hours. I feed lettuce year round. I make sure they don't go hungry in winter as they need the extra food for energy to stay warm...

NZDuckNewbies, welcome to BYC!! Post some photos, we like seeing each others birds!

nchvac, welcome to BYC. Khaki Campbells are not hybrids, just another variety of duck derived from mallards. They can breed true, I gave one of my neighbors some fertilized eggs and they grew up to look just like their parents. My Khakis are the lighter ones and are great layers. I don't...
