    Call ducks

    Thanks so much Miss Lydia. I named the ducklings right, Donald and Daisy. Daisy had a really rough start and was so little for so long and just like overnight outgrew Donald!!! She quacks and Donald is starting to get a blue head and peeps and is quiet so they are the sex I had them figured...

    Call ducks

    Thanks, I know, they have a much bigger one now. They can't put their whole head in it but they can their whole bills past their nares and that is all that really matters. They are eating so much and growing so fast now.

    Call ducks

    So happy that you got that many hens!!! My little Donald is changing his voice now when I carry him away from who I think is Daisy. He sounds like he is trying to quack but it is raspy so it's probably his male voice coming in.

    Call ducks

    Thank you so very much Miss Lydia for sharing my Call Ducks from Metzer Farms. They are now 4 weeks old and the little girl Daisy that had such a rough start is now catching up with Donald. They will be Pastel colored once all of their feathers come in.

    Call ducks

    All of my ducks that ever had any green on their heads were drakes. Some people though have had females with a green sheen to their heads, out of all the ones I have had though I never did. I hope that you end up with some Hens out of your group.

    Call ducks

    I know for sure at 3 weeks that I have a drake and a Hen Call duck. The colors of the male and female Pastel colored Call ducks are totally different. The big one that I thought was a drake is getting the dark burgundy colored chest and the Hen is staying light colored. Can you tell by the...

    Call ducks

    Beautiful Babies!!!! The ones I got from Metzer Farms have larger bills than the ones you hatched out. They do that so that they are supposed to be able to hatch out easier since the short necks and bills make it difficult to hatch was what I understood from their description of theirs.

    Call ducks

    Did you Call ducks hatch? I was just wondering how that worked out for you as many have problems hatching them out.

    Call ducks

    I think they are more their size as the Runner Ducks are built different and the Rouen are so much bigger. It is funny to watch. My one Call with the amputated end of his private part tries to mate the Khaki Campbell but I don't know if he is successful due to his amputation. Some say they can...

    Call ducks

    It's so funny when ducks are not happy with each other. When my Mallard Male tries to mess with my older Rouen Hen, she takes him by the beak and shakes it back and forth to let him know it's a No Go, lol.

    Call ducks

    Do your little drake Call ducks try to mate your Khaki Campbell Hens? Mine only seem to like the Khaki and Mallard for some reason. They leave my Rouen, Muscovy, Mule hen and Runners alone.

    Call ducks

    It would possibly work if you ordered them all at the same exact time and it would be interesting to see if Metzer would put them all together in the same box. I don't know if you are ordering them from them or not. My Mule is as big as a goose but probably has a different personality than one...

    Call ducks

    Funny how they are all different. My Calls came into my flock at 3 months of age, fully feathered. I had my Mallards for a few years. The Call ducks boss the Mallards and some of my other Hens around and none of my ducks bother them. All flock ratios are different and I am just fortunate...

    Call ducks

    I got 4 little Call Drakes fully feathered and around 3 months old a couple of years ago. They were in a separate pen for 24 hours and then turned loose with the rest of my flock. At the time I had a Mallard Drake and a Huge Muscovy Drake. No one bothered the Call boys as they all 4 stuck...
