Hello Everyone. I have 2 Ancona ducks and 1 Ancona/Cayuga mix for sale. All are 2 months and we’re raised together since they were tiny ducklings. All 3 are healthy and fat. Im located in Chicago. Please pm for details if you are interested. Thank you.
Hello all
This will be a lengthy one,
So we began with 2 Pekin, one male (Niles) and one female (Daphne, who laid her first egg this morning!).
Knowing that more females were necessary, we ordered 3 ducklings from @Metzer Farms . 2 Cayuga and 1 Silver Appleyard
They were born about June...
Hello all
So two issues have arisen that I was hoping to get some opinions/thoughts on.
Firstly is the behavior of the two older Pekin vs three newer/younger ducks (2 Cayuga and 1 Silver Appleyard)
The two Pekin, one male one female are at 6 months and have adjusted well to their coop, the...
Hi all! My Cayuga (female) and Khaki Cambell (male) recently had a baby. She’s all grown up now, so she has all of her feathers. At first I thought she was fully brown (Khaki Cambell), but then I realized there is a greenish iridescence on her wing tips, kind of like a Cayuga’s wings. Just...
Hello!
I bought three new ducks and was told they were all female. I know for sure my black and white runner is by her quack. I’m not great at voice sexing but to me the Indian runner and Cayuga sound more like my males. They just don’t have the drake feather which I know not all drakes do. I...
I've said this so many times, but, I'm picking up my Cayuga ducks tomorrow! I have an extra coop where they can be but it's occupied by my new muscovies (2 months old). The Cayuga ducks are fully mature, but obviously, the Muscovies aren't. I'm worried that the drake might try to mate with the...
Hello there! 👋🏻
Recently my ducks started laying eggs! We are so excited because my chickens are slacking lately. lol
I'm curious to know what everyone's opinions are on this. I have (1) female Blue Swedish, (2) female Mallards & (2) female Cayugas. I also have a "mutt". She's a very dark...
Hey y’all! I just recently purchased my first Cayuga ducks from someone who is downsizing their flock for winter, I bought 2 hens and a drake they are about 2 years old. When I purchased them, the person said that one of the hens had a bit of a limp, and she still has the limp right now, I went...
Hi!
Two days ago I saw my duck Pip trip over the garden hose. She started limping immediately after. I gave her vitamin b complex and put poultry green goo on her ankle. I also used my red light therapy device on her. I think it looks slightly swollen but nothing crazy. She gets around fine...
Hello,
I have 4 Chinese brown geese 2 Cayuga ducks and 2 muscovies.
All of them panic when I pick them up, and I was wondering if there's something I could do for them to warm up to me more and be more calm when I pick them up? Or if there's any better way for me to pick them up :love
Hello! My Cayuga recently started sitting on her eggs about a week and a half - two weeks ago. I’m trying to decipher which eggs are fertile. I’m especially struggling with this one. I don’t think I can see any movement inside. It’s actually pretty hard to see what’s inside. Any thoughts?
Hello all
So my two Pekins (pictured) are 2 months old and they are almost certainly one female and one male. Need to order 3 females to get the numbers right.
My last post someone mentioned size of the breed of females to order...
I was hoping to order from Metzer:
2 Cayuga female
1 silver...
Hi all,
Hatching out a few eggs from my Muscovy girls. Assuming this is a mix with the cayuga and not the white runner :lau
Just thought people might want to see the mix results- two more currently preparing for final zip :)
I actually had the pleasure of my Cayuga to a Ancona. The original mate was lost to either a raccoon or fox, and I ventured into a different breed for the new mate. I came across Willow, my Ancona, and got her for Waldo, my Cayuga. I had a game hen hatch the babies for me, and they hatched this...
Everything I've read has told me that my black babies are blue Swedish ducks (I was hoping for Cayugas) & that my tan babies are Welsh Harlequins. What do you think? 😫 I'm so anxious to know what breeds these babies are so I can build an enclosure that is suited to house them!
Ps, I do know...
We got some new ducklings today! I'm so excited, but I'm so curious to know what breed the "all black" ducklings are! They are mostly black (maybe even a dark brown? I haven't had them outside yet!) with black feet & a black bill. They have a TINY patch of yellow on their chests. I also borrowed...
So this is my first time ever incubating eggs or even seeing fertile eggs. I have 9 Cayuga duck eggs and one of them looks different from the rest. None have any veins yet, that I could see when candling today, we’re on day 5 of incubation. Is this egg okay? I think there is a vague smell. No...
Does anyone have any idea how I would go about finding some Cayuga duck eggs to hatch? I always hate ordering chicks online to be shipped. :hmm
I appreciate any leads!
