The Duck Thread

[Ren2014]

She is my only breeding age hen right now. I've just purchased 2 more but I won't be picking them up until this weekend. For now I have been keeping the drakes seperated and found another home for my poor ancona drake and his hens.

No one have ideas on the type of new ducks i have? Pictures are in previous post.

Beautiful ones

Hope this helps!

yes thank you.

yes you did. Any thoughts on the black one?

She already said the black one is a Cayuga. She wasn't referring to the fawn and white one in that photo.

Hey can hens sometimes be quiet? I have a swedish hen I just purchased I swear I heard it quack. But since we got home no quack either way. No boy quack or girl one. It's big enough it should have a curl if it's a boy but it's so quiet..

Yeah, my magpie girl is very quiet. She's such a gentle little dear. Likes to sit by herself in peace...

Aww thank you. We can't have anymore drakes and we just love this one. My other hens are such loud mouths I was worried for a minute lol.

Hey guys so I posted awhile ago about my drake becoming aggressive and majority said we needed more hens. We rehomed the drake that was being bullied and got 4 new hens. My other drake and hen and even the ducklings are all getting along great. But my drake is still being super aggressive. I have him penned alone but where he can see the other hens and they can see him. During the day they lay by his pen. No fence fighting. The second I let him out he starts really fighting. Biting there chest and wings. I have to catch him and re pen him. Not sure what to do cause we love him so much. ANY suggestions welcome? Thanks.
