    Do you like these Call Ducks?

    Hi, What do you all think of our exhibition call ducks? There is a pair of whites and a pair of abacots (in America abacots are called Snowys). Any thoughts would be great. Thanks Upper Brook House Farm

But she still has been having this problem where all of a sudden she can't hold her head up...

    Is my "runt" a call duck?

    Scooter (center) was the only small duck in a mixed bin at TSC. He is literally half the size of his companions now. Could he be a call duck? What other small breeds of duck are there?
