Hello everyone! I purchased some call duck eggs on eBay and three of them have hatched and I haven’t seen any call ducks that look like them before and I was wondering if there’s a specific name or if they’re just a random breed.
Help would be appreciated thank you!

Hello BYC! So I have three runner ducks and about three months ago I got two black Swedish ducks one of the black Swedish ducks died so I ended up getting a golden 300. They’re both different colors than the three runners I have. They’re getting big so I put them in a cage next to the runners so...
Hi! So I have two runner hens(one year old)and one runner drake(two years old). So I’ve been waiting a while and it is well into laying time but I’ve been getting no eggs. A while back I had a drake who was sick with an infection so I found this medicine that should help with infection but it is...
Hey so I have three ducklings. I started out with five and two died. I think they might have choked. I took the food away and now I’m only letting them eat when I am there to watch they have access to water the whole time though. Am I being overdramatic when my ducklings choke? They’re call...
Hi! So I have a duckling that hatched two days ago and I think I started helping it a bit too early. I feel terrible and now it’s all sticky. It’s dried off and there’s pieces of membrane stuck to it I can’t get off. They’re call ducks and I heard they need help hatching a lot so that’s why I...
Hello BYC! So I have hatched five calls. One of them is not hatching though. Inside of the egg is very goopy. I thought I might need to help it and every time I try I hit a vein. I’m very concerned because hatch day was yesterday and all of the other chicks hatched. What should I do?
Would be...
Hello everyone! I have some calls hatching soon. I’m very excited and was wondering if I could see some pictures of everyone else’s call ducks. They’re so cute and I’ve never had them before so I want to see what they’re gonna turn out like(and just for fun)!;)
Pictures would be appreciated! 😃
Hi! Two questions today. So I have some calls about to hatch and one has piped on the wrong side. Will it be ok, this has never happened to me before. Second question, six of the eight eggs have piped, some early in the morning and late at night. It’s been quite a while now and the other two...
Hello everyone! So a few days ago I went to put the ducks up and one of my ducks was dead! It scared the heck out of me! This was a drake and he had an abscess on his wing I brought him to the vet and they gave him a shot and prescription. I thought that I would not need to bring him back and...
Hello BYC! So I have a Canadian goose egg in the incubator and I’m supposed to stop turning it tomorrow. I think it’s doing well if I set it down it wiggles around. I canceled it tonight in the air cell has grown larger. But I just wanna make sure everything‘s OK because I’ve never incubated...
Hello BYC:)! So I have a Canadian goose egg I rescued a while back and it is going to hatch in five days(I think). I looked it up and it said they hatch in 28 days so that’s what I put on my calendar. Now it’s getting close and I wanted to know if it’s ready or not. The egg is completely dark...
Hello everyone! I recently got two black Swedish ducklings one just randomly died😞. I was very sad and so was the other duckling so we went to big R and got a new one. They seem to be bonding well, but I’m not sure what breed this duck is. I thought it could be Welsh Harlequin, but I looked up...
Hello everyone! so I have two ducklings and one seems maybe sick or something. Yesterday she was acting perfectly normal like a regular duckling running around chirping and playing. But today she started acting very tired and has not peeped a bit. She opens her mouth, but nothing comes out and...
Hello BYC! So I have a single goose egg in my incubator with eight call duck eggs. It’s been incubating for a while and is doing great, but I just found out we have a trip planned and we’re leaving the day It’s supposed to hatch. I’m not sure what to do because the call eggs aren’t due for...
Hello BYC, I have just received two monstera plants for my birthday. I love monstera plants. I’ve had them for about two or three days and the leaves are kind of dusty. I was wondering what I should use to clean them off. I’ve seen a few mixes like soap and Hydro peroxide with a whole lot of...
Hello BYC! I have just bought two ducklings. I think they are black Swedish, but I’m not sure any ideas what they could be.
This is chicken and cow.

Help would be appreciated thank you.
Hi BYC! I just received some call duck and Sebastopol eggs! They are now incubating have some questions. So call duck eggs I thought would be like the regular duck eggs i’ve hatched multiple times and now they’re here and I cannot believe how small they really are. Any advice for hatching calls...
Hi, so I’m just gonna cut to the chase. My ducks are not laying and my drake will not mate… they stopped in the winter (which I assume is normal) and then just never started up again. They are not molting. I heard it could be stress and we have had some hawks and eagles but they have a black...
